With dual board certification as both a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and a Family Nurse Practitioner, I bring over 25 years of experience in the medical field, including more than 6 years as a Nurse Practitioner. I am deeply committed to providing personalized care and taking the time to understand each patient as an individual rather than just a case. My focus is on delivering compassionate, patient-centered care, with expertise in treating a wide range of mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, panic disorders, mood disorders, PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, insomnia, and more. I strive to empower my patients by offering tailored treatments that address their unique needs and support their overall well-being.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we will take some time to get to know each other better. I want to learn more about you as a person, as I believe in creating mental health treatment plans that are holistic and tailored to your unique needs. I consider various factors, including your lifestyle, life experiences, habits, and mental state, as these all play an important role in shaping your overall well-being. By understanding these aspects, I can develop an accurate diagnosis and create a treatment plan that supports your journey toward healing and mental wellness.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I am recognized for my ability to accurately develop diagnoses and create effective treatment plans, thanks to my strong clinical skills in patient assessment and history-taking, which I have honed over decades of dedicated patient care. My approach is never about judgment or comparison; instead, it's focused on improving the overall health and well-being of each individual. I take great pride in helping my patients regain their mental balance and work towards a healthier, more fulfilling life. Every appointment is an opportunity I look forward to, as I am deeply committed to supporting my patients on their journey to mental wellness.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I am passionate about working with patients aged 12 and older who are struggling with mental health challenges and are seeking to regain their mental well-being. I am dedicated to helping individuals of all ages navigate their journey toward better mental health, offering compassionate and personalized care every step of the way.
