Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Missouri


Patients in Missouri often look for clear guidance, fast access, and thoughtful medication support. My focus is helping adults understand their mental health symptoms and finding the right treatment plan that works for their life.

I specialize in psychiatric medication management for anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and stress-related conditions. Many of my patients come in feeling overwhelmed or unsure about medications, and my goal is to make the process simple, collaborative, and comfortable.

I work with patients across Missouri through secure telehealth visits so you can receive care from the comfort of your home. My approach is practical and focused — we work together to identify what is happening, review treatment options, and build a plan that helps you feel better and function better in daily life.

Whether you’re starting treatment for the first time or looking to adjust your current medications, I aim to provide clear guidance and thoughtful care every step of the way.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Missouri

Finding the right therapist in Missouri starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Common reasons people seek therapy include anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, trauma, and life transitions. Missouri is home to a wide range of licensed providers — including Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), psychologists, and psychiatrists — each with different training and areas of focus. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match.

Practical factors matter, too. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions near you or virtual visits from home, and look for a provider whose availability fits your schedule. If you're in a larger metro area like Kansas City or St. Louis, you'll likely have more options for both in-person and virtual care. In more rural parts of the state, virtual sessions can connect you with providers you might not otherwise be able to see.

Therapy in Missouri can vary in cost, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower what you pay per session. 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 over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
