As a PMHNP, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive, holistic mental health care. Utilizing evidence-based approaches such as motivational interviewing, psychodynamic therapy, psychoeducational methods, and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), I tailor my treatment plans to meet the unique needs of each individual. I believe in empowering my patients through collaboration, respect, and education to foster lasting positive change. My practice involves a thorough assessment of underlying medical conditions, including lab work, and consideration of supplements to support mental health. By integrating these aspects, I ensure a well-rounded approach to treatment that addresses both the mind and body. I specialize in treating a wide range of mental health conditions, including ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, depression, anxiety, insomnia, and autism. My goal is to help my patients achieve optimal mental wellness and lead fulfilling lives through personalized and compassionate care.

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

In your first session with me, you can expect a comprehensive and welcoming assessment of your mental health needs. We will discuss your medical history, current symptoms, and any previous treatments to gain a thorough understanding of your situation. I will also perform a holistic evaluation, considering any underlying medical conditions, and may recommend lab work or supplements as part of your care plan. Together, we will set goals and outline a personalized treatment approach that aligns with your unique needs and preferences. This initial session is the foundation for building a collaborative and supportive therapeutic relationship.

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

My greatest strengths as a provider lie in my comprehensive and in-depth approach to mental health care. I take the time to uncover the exact diagnosis, going beyond superficial assessments and short appointments. I prioritize getting to know you and understanding your body, listening carefully to your concerns and experiences. I aim to build a meaningful connection, remembering your name and treating you as more than just a prescription. My holistic and thorough approach ensures that your treatment plan is tailored to your unique needs, promoting long-term mental wellness and personal growth.
