About me

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a passion for helping people regain balance, clarity, and confidence in their lives. I specialize in medication management for adults facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood swings, and emotional burnout. My approach is both clinical and compassionate as we work together to create a treatment plan that is effective, safe, and tailored to your unique needs. Whether you are navigating stress from work or relationships, struggling to focus, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed, I provide a space where you can feel heard and understood. My clients often share that they feel supported, respected, and encouraged to make meaningful progress.

Get to know me

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

Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and for me to understand your unique needs. We will talk about what brought you here, your symptoms, your medical and mental health history, and any treatments you have tried in the past. I will ask questions to get a full picture of your experiences and goals so we can decide together on the best next steps. If medication might be helpful, I will explain your options in clear terms so you can make an informed decision. We will also discuss what you hope to change, how we will measure progress, and how often we will meet. My goal in our first session is for you to leave feeling heard, understood, and confident that you have a partner in your mental health journey.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

One of my greatest strengths is my ability to combine clinical expertise with genuine compassion. I am thorough in my assessments and take the time to understand not just your symptoms but the whole picture of your life. Clients appreciate that I explain treatment options in a clear and straightforward way, empowering them to make informed decisions. My approach is highly personalized. I tailor medication management to your unique needs and adjust treatment based on your progress, preferences, and lifestyle. I am proactive in follow-up and committed to helping you see measurable improvements in mood, focus, and daily functioning. My clients often share that they feel supported, respected, and more in control of their mental health after working with me.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My ideal client is an adult who is motivated to improve their mental health but feels stuck due to anxiety, depression, ADHD, or emotional overwhelm. They may be juggling demanding responsibilities at work or home, feeling burnt out, or struggling to focus and follow through on daily tasks. They value a provider who listens, explains treatment options clearly, and works with them to find the right balance of medication and practical coping strategies. They may have tried treatment before but are ready for a more personalized and collaborative approach. Above all, they want to feel calmer, more focused, and able to show up as their best self in daily life.
