Great to meet you!

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) providing psychiatric evaluations and medication management. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, sleep difficulties, mood concerns, adjustment challenges, and burnout. My approach is warm, empowering, and solution-oriented, with treatment plans tailored to each client’s individual needs and goals. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard and actively involved in their care.

My approach to therapy

My approach to care is warm, collaborative, and solution-oriented. I look beyond symptoms to understand the whole person, including the life experiences, relationships, stressors, and lifestyle factors that may affect mental health. I provide education and encourage clients to participate actively in treatment decisions. Together, we develop a practical, individualized plan that supports lasting well-being.

What you can expect from me

During your first session, my goal is to get to know you beyond your chief complaint, and that understanding will continue to grow as we work together. We will discuss your current concerns, symptoms, medical and mental health history, medications, and treatment goals. I will take time to listen, answer your questions, and understand how your symptoms affect your daily life. Together, we will develop an individualized treatment plan that may include medication, lifestyle recommendations, and additional supportive services when appropriate. I want you to leave the session feeling heard, supported, and confident in your plan of care.
