Great to meet you!

I'm a psychiatric nurse practitioner with several years of experience, now building my own private practice so I can give each person the focused, personalized care they deserve. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, and PTSD — conditions that can feel isolating, but often respond well to the right support and the right provider. I offer telehealth appointments, including evenings and weekends, so getting care fits into your life rather than the other way around. Whether you're looking for medication management, ongoing mental health support, or simply a place to start, I'm here to walk alongside you every step of the way.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm, unhurried, and grounded in evidence. I take time to understand what's actually driving your symptoms before suggesting a treatment path — whether that means medication management, therapy referrals, or a combination of both. You'll always feel heard, not rushed.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is about getting to know you — your history, what's been challenging, and what you're hoping for. I'll ask about your symptoms, lifestyle, and goals so we can shape a care plan that actually fits your life. Expect a real conversation, not an interrogation.
