Great to meet you!

I am a psychiatric prescriber based in New Mexico, dedicated to helping individuals navigate some of life's most challenging mental health journeys. With a deep passion for serving the diverse communities of the Southwest, I specialize in the diagnosis and medication management of anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, panic disorder, addiction, and anger-related conditions. I chose this field because I believe that every person deserves access to thoughtful, compassionate psychiatric care — and that the right support can truly transform a life.

My approach to therapy

My approach to care is rooted in partnership. I take the time to truly listen to my patients, understanding that their experiences are as unique as they are. Whether someone is navigating the highs and lows of bipolar disorder, working through the grip of addiction, or learning to manage overwhelming anger or panic, I work collaboratively to develop a treatment plan that fits their individual needs. I combine evidence-based medication management with a warm, non-judgmental presence, because I know that feeling safe and heard is the foundation of any meaningful healing.

What you can expect from me

I am proud to call New Mexico home and am deeply committed to the communities I serve here. I understand the cultural richness and the very real barriers to mental health care that many New Mexicans face, and I strive to make psychiatric care accessible, affirming, and effective for every person who walks through my door. It is an honor to walk alongside my patients on their path toward stability, resilience, and well-being.
