Great to meet you!

Hello! I have been working as a psychiatric nurse for the past 6 years. I’m a compassionate and experienced psychiatric provider who truly enjoys helping people feel better and more in control of their health. I believe everyone deserves to feel heard and respected, so I work hard to create a comfortable, judgment-free space for clients to air their views.

My approach to therapy

I believe in client-centered care, working collaboratively with clients to help them achieve their best potential. I use interpersonal, cognitive behavioral therapy, and motivational interviewing.

What you can expect from me

We must begin with establishing what the client wants from treatment. A mental health assessment and evaluation are essential as we begin. Prescribing medications as needed and establishing goals for continuing therapy are important beginning steps in treatment.
