Hello and welcome. I am a dual-certified nurse practitioner with over eight years of experience specializing in comprehensive psychiatric medication management for adolescents and adults. My practice is focused on the careful assessment, diagnosis, prescribing, and ongoing optimization of psychiatric medications for a broad range of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, trauma-related disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and related conditions. I have worked with individuals across the lifespan and am currently accepting new patients ages 13 and older. My approach to care is collaborative and evidence-based, with a strong emphasis on medication effectiveness, safety, tolerability, and long-term outcomes. Treatment decisions are made thoughtfully and in partnership with you, ensuring medications align with your symptoms, goals, and overall functioning. I believe healing is best supported through individualized, intentional medication management that honors the whole person, heart, soul, and mind. I am committed to supporting you with clarity, compassion, and continuity throughout your treatment journey.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
During our initial medication management assessment, we will begin with brief introductions and then take a comprehensive review of your past and current medication experiences, including effectiveness, side effects, and concerns. We will also explore the symptoms and challenges that led you to seek care. This collaborative discussion allows me to develop an individualized medication treatment plan aligned with your clinical needs, preferences, and goals, establishing a clear and supportive foundation for progress in follow-up visits.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
As a DNP-prepared, dual-certified nurse practitioner in primary care and psychiatry with over 20 years of experience in healthcare, I am deeply committed to whole person care. My unique blend of medical and psychiatric expertise allows me to provide compassionate, integrated medication management that supports healing of the heart, soul, and mind.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
At Hart Soul & Mind Healthcare, we strive to provide exceptional healthcare services that go beyond treating symptoms. Our mission is to create a relaxed and friendly environment where clients feel comfortable expressing their needs and concerns, where you are valued, and where you are truly cared for. Through our holistic approach, we aim to promote overall wellness by addressing the physical, emotional and mental aspects of healthcare. We believe that by combining medical expertise with genuine care, we can make a positive impact on the lives of our clients and their families.
Integrative
As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I take an integrated, trauma-informed approach to medication management that recognizes how past experiences, physical health, emotional wellbeing, and life stressors all influence mental health. Our work together is grounded in safety, respect, and collaboration. I prioritize listening without judgment, providing clear education about medication options, and offering choices whenever possible so you remain an active partner in your care. Treatment decisions are made thoughtfully, integrating medication with your personal history, strengths, goals, and, when appropriate, therapy and lifestyle supports. My goal is to promote meaningful healing while minimizing distress, avoiding re-traumatization, and ensuring your care feels empowering rather than prescriptive.
