Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • California


Guaranteed intake appointment within 3 days! Weekend and evening hours available. A provider you can reach directly, by text. Personal responses to all messages within 24 - 48 hours, always.

Thanks for reading this. I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner who works with clients ages 6 to 86 struggling with depression, anxiety, ADHD, borderline personality disorder, substance abuse and other issues. For some clients, I provide both therapy and medication management; for other clients, I work closely with their therapists to optimize their medication experience. I help clients to find stability and reduce suffering. LGBTQ-allied, polyamory-informed. All lifestyles welcome.

Depression and anxiety can be logical responses to difficult life events. Many adults who experienced losses and traumas in childhood have never processed these events and continue to suffer their impacts.

Therapy should help you identify the ways you hold yourself back from greater peace and success. We all pick up dysfunctional patterns along the way and need help to identify and change them. I would like to help you in this process.
