Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I am a doctoral-prepared, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based, and individualized mental health care. I believe healing begins when people feel truly seen, heard, and respected. My goal is to create a space that feels safe, supportive, and collaborative, where you can explore challenges openly and move toward greater clarity, stability, and confidence at your own pace.

My clinical experience spans a wide range of psychiatric and co-occurring conditions, including mood and anxiety disorders, trauma-related concerns, ADHD, substance use disorders, and personality-related challenges. I take a thoughtful, balanced approach to treatment, integrating psychopharmacology with psychotherapy-informed care, lifestyle optimization, mindfulness, and holistic strategies to support both symptom relief and long-term resilience.

I help by meeting you where you are. I take time to understand your story, your goals, and what truly matters to you. Together, we create a treatment plan that feels realistic, respectful, and aligned with your life. You are never reduced to a diagnosis in my care — you are seen as a whole person with strengths, experiences, and potential.

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Atlanta, GA

Searching for OCD therapists in Atlanta starts with finding someone trained in obsessive-compulsive disorder care, not just someone who lists OCD as a focus area. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use when supporting people living with OCD, and therapists may need specific training to provide it. As you compare options, look for experience with concerns like intrusive thoughts, checking behaviors, contamination fears, compulsions, and anxiety. A therapist’s bio can help you confirm whether they mention ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or direct experience supporting people living with OCD.

Atlanta has many mental health care options across neighborhoods like Midtown, Buckhead, Decatur, and Virginia-Highland, which can make the search more detailed rather than simple. Consider whether an in-person office fits your commute, parking needs, or transit route, or whether virtual sessions give you more flexibility. It also helps to compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. For OCD care, review each profile closely to see whether the therapist has specific ERP training, since that can be different from general familiarity with OCD.

Therapy in Atlanta can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, take your insurance, and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details to see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book, then compare bios, availability, and appointment formats in one place. From there, you can browse OCD therapists in Atlanta and book directly when you’re ready.
