I have found my own personal healing to be intimately connected to nature, and it is here that I believe that we can all begin to rediscover our intrinsic humanity and let go of those things that distract us from our higher selves. In my spare time, I work as an outdoor educator and manage my own private practice and guide Outdoor Retreats

I believe it is helpful and important to translate what is discussed in session and in telehealth meetings into lived experience and real change.

If you’re the one everyone depends on but you feel anxious, burned out, or emotionally drained, you don’t have to keep pushing through alone. I work with adults who are high-functioning on the outside but overwhelmed on the inside, especially women, professionals, parents, caregivers, and veterans navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, burnout, and major life transitions.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) and over 20 years of experience across diverse healthcare settings. As a veteran, I bring personal understanding of military culture and chronic stress. My approach is collaborative, culturally responsive, and judgment-free, blending evidence-based medication management with supportive, real-world conversation.

If you’re looking for care that feels thoughtful, respectful, and tailored to your life, not rushed or one-size-fits-all, invite you to schedule a consultation and take the first step toward feeling more grounded and supported.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you

Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Glendale

Finding an LGBTQIA+-affirming therapist in Glendale, AZ starts with identifying what kind of support matters most to you. Some people are looking for help with anxiety, depression, or relationship concerns that intersect with their identity. Others may want a provider experienced with coming out, gender identity exploration, or the specific stressors that LGBTQIA+ individuals face. A licensed provider — such as an LPC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist — with affirming training can make a meaningful difference in how supported you feel from the first session.

When comparing providers, look beyond credentials to understand their approach. Reading a provider's bio can help you learn how they work with LGBTQIA+ clients and whether their style resonates with you. A free phone consultation is another way to gauge fit before committing — you can ask about their experience, discuss your goals, and see if the connection feels right.

Therapy in Glendale can be expensive without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with 585 insurance plans, making it easier to find an affirming provider who fits both your needs and your budget.
