Anxiety and Depression

Great to meet you!

As a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP), I am passionate about helping individuals overcome mental health challenges and improve their quality of life. My background as a Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and experience in primary care give me a comprehensive understanding of how physical health and mental well-being are interconnected.

I specialize in treating anxiety and depression—two conditions that can have a profound impact on daily life. My approach is collaborative and empathetic, focusing on understanding the underlying factors contributing to each individual's struggles. I work closely with clients to develop personalized treatment plans that address their unique needs.

With over a year of experience as a PMHNP, I combine my advanced education with hands-on experience in providing compassionate, evidence-based care. I am dedicated to creating an open and supportive environment where you can feel heard and understood, allowing us to work together toward your mental health goals.

If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, or other mental health concerns, I am here to help. Together, we can explore treatment options that promote your well-being and help you move forward.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I believe in a patient-centered, collaborative approach to mental health. My goal is to build a trusting relationship where you feel heard and supported throughout your treatment journey. I take the time to understand your unique experiences, challenges, and goals before recommending any treatment plan.

I believe in taking a holistic view of mental health—understanding that each individual’s situation is unique and that the path to wellness can look different for everyone.

Above all, I prioritize compassion, respect, and open communication to help you feel comfortable and empowered in managing your mental health.

What you can expect from our first session

When you work with me, you can expect a safe, supportive environment where your mental health concerns are taken seriously. Each session is an opportunity for us to work together to explore your challenges, understand the root causes, and develop a treatment plan that works for you.
