Hello! I’m a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner based in Ohio, with a background rooted in patient care since 2007 and over ten years of experience in the mental health field. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with adults facing a wide range of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, and more. My approach is holistic and patient-centered. I provide a full spectrum of psychiatric services, including thorough assessments, accurate diagnoses, and the development of individualized treatment plans. Whether through medication management, psychotherapy, or a combination of both, my goal is to help clients better understand and manage their mental health conditions. I am passionate about helping individuals lead more fulfilling lives, free from the burden of mental health struggles. I work collaboratively with my clients, providing the tools and support they need to take control of their mental health journey and build resilience for the future.
In our first session together as your Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), we will begin the important journey toward your optimal well-being. This initial meeting is a key moment where we’ll establish the foundation of our therapeutic relationship and start to understand your unique needs and goals. Above all, it’s a chance for us to assess if we’re a good fit for working together. I prioritize creating a welcoming and supportive environment where you feel heard, respected, and understood. We’ll begin by discussing the reasons you’re seeking help and exploring any challenges or concerns you're facing. This is your opportunity to share your story, express what brought you here, and outline what you hope to achieve. During the session, I will conduct a comprehensive assessment to better understand your mental health history, current symptoms, and any factors affecting your well-being. Through thoughtful questions and active listening, I aim to develop a well-rounded view of your strengths, challenges, and aspirations. Together, we will collaborate on creating a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your specific needs and goals. This may involve discussing therapeutic options, medication management (if appropriate), and practical coping strategies that can improve your overall quality of life. Throughout our work together, my approach is grounded in empathy, respect, and a genuine commitment to supporting you. My goal is for you to feel validated, empowered, and hopeful as we begin taking the first steps toward positive change. Your well-being is my top priority, and I am dedicated to partnering with you every step of the way to help you achieve your goals and live your best life.

She asked me why I had switched providers, and I told her about the bad judgment of the previous provider. She agreed with me. Then when I asked if she could prescribe me medication, she told me to go back to that bad previous provider. I don't understand what she was thinking.
