I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner who holds a master’s degree in nursing from Frontier Nursing University. As an independent practitioner I can diagnose and treat mental health conditions with full prescriptive authority and order diagnostic labs as appropriate. With nearly 15 years of nursing experience, my passion for patient and family-centered care has evolved from working the on the front lines as an ICU RN during the covid-19 pandemic to addressing the mental health crisis impacting all of our communities as a nurse practitioner.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over a decade of experience in mental health care, supporting individuals across inpatient and outpatient settings. Through my work, I have cared for clients with a wide range of needs, including chronic and severe mental health conditions, and I understand how overwhelming it can feel to navigate symptoms while trying to maintain daily life.
My care philosophy is centered on partnership. Treatment is not about taking over your care, but about working with you to explore your symptoms, goals, and values. Together, we develop a treatment plan that feels respectful, personalized, and empowering. If you have concerns or hesitations about medication, we will discuss all available options openly and thoughtfully, moving at a pace that feels right for you.
I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, OCD, and other mood and thought-related conditions. During the initial session, we focus on understanding your concerns, reviewing your history, and identifying practical steps toward improvement. Care may include psychiatric evaluation, medication management when appropriate, brief psychotherapy, education, and ongoing support.
I believe mental health care should feel supportive, clear, and collaborative—not rushed or overwhelming.
You do not have to face these challenges alone. My role is to help you reduce symptoms, strengthen coping skills, and regain balance so you can function at your best and move forward with confidence and stability.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Eugene, OR
Searching for therapists in Eugene starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Eugene therapists may work with concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to focus on. Reading bios can also help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples counseling.
In a mid-sized city like Eugene, your options may include therapists near Downtown, South Hills, River Road, and nearby areas, along with virtual appointments across Oregon. In-person care may be useful if location and commute are simple for you, while virtual therapy can add more scheduling flexibility. Beyond specialty, consider appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. A therapist’s profile can give you a clearer sense of their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus before you book.
Therapy in Eugene can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before starting care. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences, accept your plan, and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
