I am a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I completed my Master of Science degree at Old Dominion University. I am licensed to provide both psychiatric medication management and psychotherapy. However, at this time I am currently only providing medication management. I am passionate about transforming minds and changing lives! I believe with the right mindset, anything is possible. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you to get to where you want to be.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, I will be getting to know you. I ask a lot of in depth and personal questions to better and fully understand who you are and what life experiences contributed to becoming that individual.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strength as a provider is that I meet you where you are, in a non-judgmental way. My clients tell me I make them feel comfortable, even when I am being direct or discussing a difficult topic.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I advocate for my clients to approach their own problems with a positive perspective and attitude of perseverance. Transformation takes work and I expect my clients to be motivated for treatment. If that is you, we can work through any mental health issues you are experiencing.
