Great to meet you!

I’m a dual board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner who is passionate about helping people feel better and function at their best. I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive therapy for concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, grief, insomnia, mood changes, and substance use. My approach is warm, respectful, and collaborative, and I take time to listen without judgment. Together, we will create a treatment plan that feels practical, personal, and supportive.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm, collaborative, and centered on your individual needs. I take time to listen, understand your concerns, and explain treatment options in clear, simple language. Together, we create a practical care plan that may include medication management, supportive therapy, and healthy lifestyle changes. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, grief, sleep problems, and mood disorders.

What you can expect from me

During your first session, you can expect a welcoming, supportive, and judgment-free environment. We will discuss your concerns, medical and mental health history, current symptoms, and what you hope to achieve through treatment. Together, we will identify your main goals and create a personalized plan that may include medication, therapy, lifestyle support, or a combination of these. My goal is for you to leave the session feeling heard, informed, and hopeful about the next steps.
