Great to meet you!

I’m a Board‐Certified Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 20 years of nursing experience and a genuine passion for supporting emotional well‐being. I specialize in depression, anxiety, PTSD, mood disorders, and psychotic disorders, and I provide compassionate, personalized care for adults 18 and older. With a Master of Science in Nursing from Francis Marion University, I strive to create a safe, welcoming space where healing can begin and people feel truly supported.

My approach to therapy

My approach is to create a safe, comfortable space where you can be yourself. Each appointment is centered on trust, openness, and working together as a team. My goal is to support your healing with compassion and collaboration.

What you can expect from me

As a Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, my goal in the first visit is to create a safe, comfortable space for you to share what brought you here. We’ll begin with a warm introduction and gently move into your mental health journey. This conversation helps us build trust and lays the foundation for meaningful, collaborative care.
