Several of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or unsure where to begin. Whether you’re navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood changes, or behavioral concerns, you deserve clear answers and a provider who truly listens. I offer a supportive, judgment-free space where you can speak openly and feel heard. As a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, I take a thoughtful approach to care, combining evidence-based treatment, practical guidance, and collaboration. You can meet with me for therapy only or for both therapy and medication management, depending on what feels right for you.

You’re juggling a lot—and it’s okay if your brain isn’t cooperating. Between high-stakes exams, lab reports, job applications, and the pressure to maintain a social life, it’s easy to feel like you’re constantly underwater. When procrastination kicks in, your mind races at 2:00 AM, and campus services have a month-long waitlist, the stress can feel insurmountable.

I provide specialized online psychiatric care specifically for college and graduate students navigating ADHD, anxiety, and depression. I understand the unique rhythm of academic life. My practice is designed to fit into your schedule, offering secure video visits you can join from your dorm, your apartment, or even your car between classes.

I am licensed to serve clients across Maryland. To make your life easier, I offer simple online scheduling, streamlined prescription refills, and consistent follow-up care.

I’m a bilingual psychotherapist (English/Español) with extensive experience supporting individuals living with bipolar disorder, depression, and anxiety. I hold a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Johns Hopkins University and am credentialed as a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in the state of Maryland and in Florida. In addition to my private practice, I work full-time as a Psychiatric Therapist at The Johns Hopkins Hospital, where I’ve spent years helping people manage mood disorders and find greater stability.

Living with bipolar disorder can feel like riding an unpredictable roller-coaster. Many of the clients I work with want to better understand their symptoms, spot early warning signs, and create daily routines that steady the mind and body. Others are navigating depression, anxiety, or the toll that mood changes can take on careers, caregiving roles, and relationships. If you’re ready to turn insight into action, sleep better, fuel your body, and nurture healthier connections, I’m here to guide you.

As your relationship therapist/coach, I help individuals and couples develop relational competence so you can break old patterns, communicate with clarity, and create more secure and nurturing relationships.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Bowie, MD


Hi, I’m a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I graduated from Drexel University with my Master's degree in Nursing. I then completed my Post-Graduate Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I have over twenty years of experience working in healthcare. Psych has always been my passion. My experiences encompass working with clients across the life span, including Child and Adolescents, Adult, and Geriatric patient populations. I’ve provided services to clients presenting with many psychiatric disorders, such as Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and more. I’m in the belief that mental health wellbeing is a priority. Human beings are resilient. Holistic care is the key to promoting better patient outcomes. Therefore, I believe that with an evidence-based practice treatment plan consisting of psychotherapy and/or a combination of psychotherapy and medication management, one will be able to control their mental health.


I’m a very compassionate, caring, and empathetic person. I strive to provide holistic care and collaborate with my clients to develop a treatment plan that they are comfortable with.
