I am a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner with over 8 years of experience caring for patients in a variety of clinical settings including outpatient psychiatry, inpatient psychiatry, telepsychiatry, and primary care. I earned her Family Nurse Practitioner program from Chamberlain College, IL, and her post-master’s certification as a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner from Liberty University, VA.

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

In our first session, we will start with a brief introduction, and then discuss your mental health concerns. This self-awareness will help you to communicate and share your thoughts effectively in your therapeutic journey. I approach health from a holistic perspective. The most important aspect of care is listening to the patient’s unique story. My goal is to create an environment built on safety and trust. I love helping others feel better to reach their full potential Clients can expect a supportive and empowering environment where their voice is heard. Together, we develop a personalized goal for better mental well-being, focusing on symptom management, coping skills, and improving quality of life. I offer a range of skills that will diagnose conditions and determine if medication therapy is necessary.

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

As working with a wide range of clients, I learned to be compassionate and empathetic. I am gentle with clients in their most fragile times and I push when it is needed to grow. The diverse experiences have given me a broad perspective on client care. I can bring a genuine, warm, and unique approach to each client

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

I believe life is meant to be fully experienced, but many of us struggle to live happily. I am dedicated to work alongside others to help eliminate the barriers that keep them from truly enjoying life
