Great to meet you!

Hello, I am psychiatric nurse practitioner with over nineteen years of experience in mental health with women, men, adolescents, and service members. I deeply value holistic health: whole person well-being addressing our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions. I see mental/emotional health as the foundation of a healthy, fulfilling life and I want that for you! I have seen the difference excellent care makes. Let's see if we are a good fit today!

My approach to therapy

I partner with motivated clients to create their vision of success through psychiatric assessment, coaching (health, career and life goals), lifestyle modifications (nutrition, exercise, stress reduction) and medication management (traditional and integrative) in a serene, supportive environment for individualized holistic care.

Please note our practice is unable to provide the intensive support needed for Bipolar I d/o, schizo spectrum, psychosis (including substance induced), eating disorders, suicidality, personality d/o (including BPD), SUD/addiction, and/or any condition requiring emergent medical or psychiatric services.

ADD/ADHD medication management requires in person appt (state requirement). Please book through our Palmetto Counseling Associates office @ (803) 254-9767.
