I am a dual certified Nurse Practitioner. Board-certified as a PMHNP (psychiatric mental health) and FNP (family practice). Master Psychopharmacology certified from NEI. ADHD-CCSP(ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider). Alumni of Purdue Global University and Rocky Mountain University. I have worked in multiple settings such as Retail Clinic, Psychiatry, home health, neurology, bariatrics/bariatric surgery, medical weight-loss. I am currently licensed as a prescriber in the state of WA, MT, AZ, CO, IL, NV, HI, TX and WI with a focus in psychiatry and family practice.

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

First session would be history taking and filling up of assessment forms necessary for psychiatric assessments ending with medical diagnosis and treatment options as well as collaborative discussion regarding treatment, diagnosis and expectations between patient-provider relationship.

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

I am an athlete so physical health is a big deal to me. I do believe that the body and mind needs to be treated together and not separate. I am board certified in psychiatry and family medicine which helps me integrate more knowledge in the practice.
