Are you looking for a provider who listens? One who tailors medications to your unique needs? That is what I do. I have been in healthcare for 30 years, honing the art of nursing. I pursued extended education to be able to care for my patients more effectively. I am committed to helping you achieve balance with your mental health needs, focusing on anxiety, depression, mood disorders, PTSD, and many more. I am non-judgemental, knowing that mental health is part of our overall well-being. One in five Americans lives with a mental illness. I am here to help break down the stigma and let everyone know that their mental health matters. Medications are a crucial piece of the puzzle for many. I carefully create a care plan to help manage the distressing symptoms of anxiety and depression. I am open to working with patients to prescribe medications to manage drug and alcohol cravings as well. I can help treat childhood and Adult ADHD as well. I will encourage my patients to be active participants in their care. They may need additional therapy or treatments to manage symptoms most effectively and see true growth. I am here to provide that support and help you see progress!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session we will review your completed intake forms to make sure I understand your needs and goals of care. Expect someone who will listen and provide options. I like to educate so you know why I recommend what I do and give you a sense of a solid plan moving forward.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I combine medication management with a small amount of Cognitive behavioral therapy. I refer out as appropriate when issues need more specialized therapy. I encourage a balanced life of mind, body and spirit, utilizing add-on treatments such as journaling, meditation, and workbooks.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am dedicated to helping you be successful in managing your mental health. I will give you the tools and you just have to apply them. I work hard to build a solid foundation with my patients so that they see the most success.
