Understanding Your Issues:
I understand that every individual is unique, and your concerns are as individual as you are. Whether you're grappling with anxiety, depression.
I have over 15 years years of experience working with children, adults, and older adults. I help people with suicidal thoughts, anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, bipolar disorder, addiction, PTSD and more. I also have experience with advanced treatments such as TMS, ECT, and Spravato.
Most importantly, I strive to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel truly heard, respected, and empowered as we work together toward feeling better.
I bring eight years of prior experience as an adult and pediatric emergency room nurse. My background in acute care has given me a strong foundation in crisis intervention, compassionate listening, and evidence-based clinical judgment.
I was born in Los Angeles, spent 15 years living in Hawaii, and now reside in Miami, Florida. My diverse life experiences — including traveling to 23 countries — have shaped my cultural awareness and deep respect for the unique perspectives of every individual I serve.
I believe that mental wellness involves treating the whole person, not just their symptoms. My goal is to create a supportive, collaborative environment where you feel heard, empowered, and equipped to build meaningful, lasting change in your life.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right psychiatrist in Tarpon Springs starts with understanding the kind of care you want. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work alongside a prescriber. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, clinical background, and approach to care before booking.
Tarpon Springs is a smaller market, so local psychiatry appointments may be more limited than in larger Florida cities. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still letting you choose a psychiatrist licensed in Florida. As you compare psychiatrists, look at appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and how they structure follow-up visits. Medication management appointments are usually shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Reading bios can help you understand communication style, areas of focus, and whether a free phone consultation is available.
Psychiatric care in Tarpon Springs can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who take your plan, are accepting new patients, and offer clear cost estimates before you book, so you can compare options, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
