Great to meet you!

I am a dedicated psychiatric nurse practitioner with over 20 years of experience in both acute care and psychiatric nursing. In my practice, I believe that understanding your issues is the first step toward healing. I take the time to truly listen to your experiences, validating your feelings, and recognizing the weight of what you’re going through. With a holistic approach to psychiatric and medical management, I specialize in the medication management of ADHD, Anxiety, OCD, Trauma, Borderline Personality Disorder, Depression, and Insomnia. Together, we’ll work to help you find the balance and peace you deserve.

My approach to therapy

My approach is centered around guiding you through your unique journey with personalized care and support. I offer tailored strategies that address your specific needs, combining evidence-based therapies with a compassionate and empathetic mindset. Together, we’ll explore effective coping mechanisms, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and work towards building resilience in your life. With a deep passion for helping individuals feel their best, I specialize in comprehensive care that promotes both mental and physical well-being. I am also certified in bio-identical hormone replacement therapy and am committed to offering personalized treatment plans designed to meet each patient’s unique needs. My expertise extends to supporting individuals who have experienced trauma, substance abuse, and those in the LGBTQ community.

What you can expect from me

At your first visit, you can expect a warm, welcoming, and safe environment where your concerns are heard and validated. I’m committed to making sure you feel supported as we begin exploring your feelings and experiences. Together, we’ll start the journey toward healing by identifying your specific needs and creating a personalized plan that aligns with your goals. My approach is centered around fostering hope, healing, and self-discovery, and I will be with you every step of the way. Whether we’re addressing current challenges or focusing on long-term wellness, my goal is to support you in creating a more fulfilling life. You are not alone—this is the first step in a partnership where your health and happiness are my top priorities
