Great to meet you!

With over 20 years in nursing across various settings and a Doctor of Nursing Practice, I bring a wealth of experience and a strong educational background including a Master of Science in Psychiatric Mental Health and Public Health. Certified in multiple areas, I also teach graduate students and specialize in ADHD, PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar Disorder, and Substance Use Disorders. My approach integrates comprehensive care with evidence-based treatments. ​

A bit about my approach to therapy

As a pragmatic and evidence-based behavioral health provider at Shore Side Behavioral Health Service, LLC, I foster an environment of trust with a commitment to integrating research into practice. We ensure safety through comprehensive lab evaluations and adherence to DEA guidelines, delivering personalized, scientifically backed care to each client. ​

What you can expect from our first session

As your mental health provider, I ensure you receive safe, evidence-based care with a personal touch. My approach prioritizes understanding and communication, making you feel heard and valued. Known for being laid-back, I bring a unique perspective to patient care, often saying "If you can't get along with me, it's probably you," reflecting my extensive experience with approximately 30,000 patient encounters. ​
