Hello, and welcome. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, and I am passionate about providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care to individuals across the lifespan. I support clients with concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma-related challenges, stress, and other psychiatric needs. I know reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, so I work hard to create a space where you can feel safe, comfortable, and truly heard. My goal is for you to feel supported from the very beginning and confident that you do not have to navigate this alone.
Quality and insightful care allowing for patient care











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 Portland starts with knowing what kind of care you want to access. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and provide medication management. Therapists provide talk therapy and are another valid starting point, depending on your needs. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and care approach before booking.
Portland has many psychiatry options across areas like the Pearl District, Hawthorne, Sellwood, and nearby neighborhoods, which can make it harder to narrow your search. Consider whether you prefer an in-person office, virtual appointments, or a mix of both. Psychiatric care often includes shorter, less frequent appointments than therapy, especially for medication management. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Reading profiles can help you compare appointment availability, communication style, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Portland can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who match your preferences, are accepting new patients, and take your insurance. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated costs before you book, then review bios and schedule 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.
