Great to meet you!

I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with more than 18 years of nursing experience, including several years as an Adult-Gerontology Nurse Practitioner. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and completed advanced training in psychiatric mental health care. My clinical interests include depression, anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, and other mental health concerns across the lifespan.

My approach to therapy

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and individualized, with a focus on understanding each client as a whole person. I work with clients to develop practical treatment plans that may include medication management, supportive therapy, education, and ongoing symptom monitoring. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their care.

What you can expect from me

My goal is to help clients feel more balanced, confident, and equipped to manage their mental health in everyday life. Together, we identify realistic treatment goals, monitor progress, and make adjustments based on your individual needs and preferences. I strive to create a safe, welcoming, and judgment-free environment where you can openly discuss your concerns and feel respected throughout your care.
