Hello! My name is Lori, and I am an ANCC/Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I am licensed in Georgia, New York, Florida, and Nevada, with nearly 18 years of critical care nursing experience prior to becoming a nurse practitioner. For the past several years, I have specialized in the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD across the lifespan. I also treat individuals with mood disorders, obsessions/compulsions, and anxiety disorders. My practice is centered on comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, diagnostic clarification, and evidence-based medication management. Many clients find that this care works best when paired with ongoing therapy, and I value collaboration with a client’s therapist or counseling provider when additional support is needed. My goal is to help clients gain clarity, structure, and confidence in their daily lives.
During our first session, I take the time to really listen to your story. Together, we will review your challenges, strengths, and goals. I believe in creating a collaborative plan where you feel empowered to take an active role in your treatment.
I specialize in treating you and not just your diagnosis. I place a strong emphasis on: Meeting you exactly where you are. Thorough assessments to clarify diagnosis and needs. Evidence-based medication management tailored to each client. Practical strategies and psychoeducation for daily life and long-term success. Empathy and understanding, ensuring clients feel heard, respected, and supported. My clients often tell me that they appreciate my ability to explain their diagnosis in ways that make sense, and my dedication to helping them feel capable and confident in managing their symptoms.
My ideal client is someone who is motivated for meaningful change and willing to take an active role in their personal growth. They value accountability, self-reflection, and are open to learning new ways of thinking, coping, and living. This individual understands that transformation is a process—not a quick fix—and is committed to improving their overall quality of life emotionally, mentally, and functionally.
Supportive
Overall, my approach to treating these specialties is rooted in compassion, empathy, and a deep commitment to helping individuals restore their mental health and reclaim their lives. I am dedicated to providing comprehensive care that addresses the unique needs and challenges of each individual in a supportive and empowering manner.

I feel like she listened to me and did not brush me aside.

I had my first session with Lori today, and it was a really positive experience. She was incredibly warm, kind, and intelligent. She took the time to truly listen and understand what was going on with me. I felt very comfortable and safe opening up to her, which can be hard to find with a provider. She also helped come up with a plan to address what I’m dealing with. I would absolutely recommend Lori to anyone looking for a compassionate and knowledgeable mental health provider.

This was very difficult for me and Lori made it the session as easy as it can be meeting for the first time.
