Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Shirley, a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. I provide evidence-based telepsychiatry, thoughtful medication management, and supportive talk therapy for children ages 5 and up, teens, and adults. I offer comprehensive evaluations for concerns including anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and more in a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental environment.

My approach to therapy

I believe mental health care should be personal because every person’s story, needs, and goals are unique. We’ll work together to create a treatment plan that fits your life, preferences, and comfort level. Depending on what feels right for you, treatment may include medication management, supportive therapy, and regular check-ins to help you feel informed, supported, and confident in your care.

What you can expect from me

During our first sessions, I’ll take time to get to know you, understand what brings you in, and learn more about your history, goals, and day-to-day experiences. You can expect a thorough evaluation, thoughtful conversation, and space to ask questions without judgment. Together, we’ll build a personalized plan and decide on the next steps at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d love to connect.
