Hello! Its so nice to meet you! I am a Family & Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I seek to take a whole person approach to address concerns regarding your mental health and flourishing. I certainly enjoy entertaining the bright and sunny side of life and have developed the skills to grow and learn from the hard experiences in life. I want to help you build a lifestyle that will help balance the demands of life and the joy we can all cultivate. I use psychotropic medications as well as some complimentary add-ons. Care is tailored to fit your needs. I do not prescribe controlled substances such as benzos or stimulants.
The first session will be a psychiatric diagnostic evaluation to identify your needs and develop a plan to help you move forward in the most healthy way. It should take about an hour. Please have as much of your history including medical, mental health, medications, allergies and preferences ready to discuss.
My greatest strength is my ability to listen. I am very kind, caring and genuine and my patients appreciate it. I create space where people feel welcome. Rapport is easy to develop.
learning to live in the moment is very important in learning to manage stress and cope effectively.
