Good day! I'm Karen, a dual board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner with training in both psychiatry and family medicine. I'm passionate about truly listening and helping you develop an individualized treatment plan that provides a brighter solution for your mental wellness and overall health. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, PTSD, and Bipolar Disorder. I offer holistic and collaborative treatment options at convenient times, all from the comfort of your home.
My goal is for you to feel empowered in caring for your well-being, to feel heard, and to leave our sessions feeling optimistic about your treatment plan so that you can feel your best. I look forward to working with you!
With nearly a decade of experience caring for children, adolescents, and adults in inpatient and outpatient settings, I lean on evidence-based techniques to provide the highest quality of care. I focus on the importance of personal growth and mindfulness using various therapeutic approaches. Listening to you and your needs is my priority as we develop a plan together that is best for you.
Through tele-psychiatry sessions, we'll work together to develop a comprehensive treatment plan where you will gain insight into your challenges, develop coping skills, and have the opportunity to discuss treatment options that are the right fit for you.
In my practice, I utilize motivational interviewing to help clients identify their own motivations for change, rather than imposing my own views. This involves actively listening, reflecting on their statements, and helping them to articulate their own reasons for wanting to make positive changes in their lives.
