I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner in Kentucky. I have been practicing over 12 years. I am licensed children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. I primarily diagnosis mental disorders and treat with psychiatric medications when necessary. I have all types of pts. and enjoy getting to know the patient and their unique situation. Common mental health disorders I treat: ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, PTSD, psychosis, and substance abuse.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

The initial evaluation would be a review of mental and physical health history and current mental health concerns. Psychosocial circumstances, family history, medications, and mental health symptoms would be reviewed. Diagnosis, recommendations, and treatment plan would be completed at the initial evaluation.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I have a patient centered approach to treatment. I get to know the individual patient, current life situation, and psychosocial stressors that impact many mental health symptoms. My primary role is diagnosis and medication management for psychiatric disorders but I also combine therapy techniques to help improve clinical outcomes. When the patient can identify maladaptive thinking patterns or improve coping skills in combination mental health medications, treatment can be improved.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I enjoy working with all types of patients. My goal is to improve quality of life through enhancing awareness, lifestyle interventions, and medication management. I have lots of experience with children and adults from different backgrounds. I have a very practical approach to treatment and will work with you to come up with a treatment plan for you unique situation.
