Great to meet you!

Hello and welcome! I am a Master's level dual board certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Medication management is my specialty, and supportive therapy is part of every visit. I have experience with veterans, adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities, TBI, severe and persistent mental illness, pregnant women, transient/low income populations, Indian Health Services, geriatrics, trauma, and LGBTQIA2S+ patients. I do not diagnose Autism or ADD/ADHD. I see patients ages 16 and up.

My approach to therapy

I believe in the importance of considering the mind/body connection when treating mental illness. I welcome all adults from every walk of life, and understand that we all deserve to be heard and treated with dignity and respect. My style is relaxed, personable, direct and supportive. I specialize in treating adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities as well as the general population.

What you can expect from me

I like to create a warm, comforting environment where you feel validated and your concerns are discussed. I believe in a team approach. I love to educate and empower so that you can make informed decisions about your care, and understand the reasoning behind my recommendations. I also enjoy getting to know about those I treat, and how life may be impacting your health. I want every client to feel supported and helped in some way!
