About me

Looking for a compassionate mental health partner? As a dual board-certified nurse practitioner in both psychiatry and family medicine, I bring a wealth of experience in both internal medicine and psychiatry to provide the best possible care for adults. I believe that mental health is the cornerstone of a happy, fulfilling life. That’s why I take the time to truly listen to my patients, understanding their unique stories and needs to create a personalized treatment plan that fits their life. Together, we’ll explore options such as medication management, lifestyle adjustments, and holistic approaches to find what works best for you. I’m here to support not just you, but also your family, in navigating mental health challenges with empathy and expertise. Let’s work together to build a brighter, healthier future.

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

During our initial session together, clients can expect a structured and supportive environment aimed at understanding their unique needs and concerns. We’ll begin with introductions to establish rapport and build a comfortable therapeutic relationship. Following this, we’ll delve into a comprehensive assessment, focusing on gathering detailed background information, medical history, family history, childhood experiences, and current stressors. This thorough exploration allows us to gain a holistic understanding of your situation and lays the foundation for developing a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and goals. Throughout the session, I encourage open communication and welcome any questions or concerns you may have.
