PMHNP, 13 years of experience
With a Doctor of Nursing Practice and 13 years as a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, I’m passionate about delivering evidence-based, transformative care for adults with anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions. A telehealth pioneer since 2015, I also teach graduate nursing courses, believing telehealth and (online education) fosters access and authentic connections. My integrative approach—using keto/carnivore diets, supplements, medication management (including deprescribing), and mindfulness—helps you reduce negative thoughts and achieve lasting wellness.
In your 60-minute telehealth session, expect a warm space with my real office wall visible, not a fake background, and I might introduce my dog! You’ll have time to share your story and past treatments, feeling seen and heard. I’ll identify your working diagnosis and we’ll explore short- and long-term options like supplements, medications, or dietary strategies leaving you clear and hopeful for better mental health.
My patient-specific approach stands out by using laboratory values, like thyroid and vitamin levels, to uncover medical causes of anxiety and depression often overlooked, optimizing the mind-body connection. I believe patient education is key to understanding all treatment options, expected outcomes, and side effects, empowering people to have a truly collaborative mental health experience.
I’m serve adults with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, PTSD, ADHD, and other mental health conditions who seek more natural options, fewer medications and better overall health. You may feel misdiagnosed or unheard by past providers, longing for care that truly sees you. My integrative approach— supplements, medication management (including deprescribing), mindfulness and supporting people on keto/carnivore diets, —empowers you to achieve lasting wellness through evidence-based, transformative care.
I help adults (ages 17-63) experiencing anxiety, depression/mood disorder and other mental health issues decrease their negative/worrisome thoughts, increase their ability to make choices based on their values and life goals so they can live life to their maximum level of wellness. I do this by partnering with my patients to create a holistic wellness plan that incorporates: supplements and dietary recommendations (specifically keto/carnivore), mindfulness activities, lifestyle modifications, mental health medication management (including de-prescribing).
