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, 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, BDSM- and polyamory-informed. All lifestyles welcome. I do therapy as well as medication management, but I am currently only accepting new clients for medication management. If you are looking for therapy, I am happy to refer you to skilled therapists I know who are accepting new clients.
