Hi there! I'm glad you found your way here.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or just plain exhausted, you are not alone. A lot of the

people I work with describe a similar experience: on the surface, life looks manageable, but

internally, it is a different story. Thoughts that won't quiet down, energy that's hard to find, or

stress from past experiences that never quite resolved themselves.

You don't have to keep carrying that on your own.

I work with patients navigating a wide range of mental challenges, from anxiety, ADHD,

depression, and mood disorders to trauma, life transitions, burnout, and beyond. My goal is

straightforward: to help you feel more like yourself again, and more in control of your day-to-day life.

I’m a board certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with 20 years of experience caring for patients across a wide range of clinical settings including cardio thoracic vascular surgical intensive care units, and coronary care units. This extensive background has shaped holistic understanding of health and allows me to approach mental health care with both clinical precision and genuine compassion. I am specialized in treating adults (ages 18 and older) with depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorders, sleeping disorders, substance use disorders with a particular focus on treatment resistant depression. I have specialized training in advanced treatment modalities including ketamine infusions, Spravato, and Trans cranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).

As a special needs dad, a former Spanish teacher, former school counselor (MEdSC), and nurse (MSN), I bring a broad range of experiences to my clients. As a nurse, I have worked PACU, ER, and geriatrics. My goal is to work with the client to reach their goals through the use of counseling, supplements, and medication as needed. I enjoy using belief systems as part of my counseling if desired.

Like many providers, I have worked with many clients with depression, mania, and anxiety. As a previous teacher/school counselor, I understand the impact of ADHD on the student, the classroom, the teacher, and the family.

I think it is important for prospective clients to know that I want to help both now and in the future. For this reason, there are drugs that I don't prescribe (stimulants and benzos) because of the long-lasting side effects.

My hobbies include playing the piano, singing, gardening and family.

I provide personalized mental health care for adults and adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, and related concerns. My focus is helping you feel better, think more clearly, and regain control of your daily life.

I offer comprehensive evaluations and medication management through secure telehealth across Texas, with in-person availability in the Dallas–Fort Worth area. Treatment is tailored to your unique needs, with careful attention to effectiveness, side effects, and long-term stability.
