(she/her)
I am a dedicated Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and graduate educator with over 16 years of experience providing evidence-based, holistically focused mental health care to multiple patient populations. I am passionate about integrating novel psychopharmacology and science-backed holistic interventions in psychiatric care. I enjoy working with people from all walks of life, regardless of circumstance, and helping them with their depression, anxiety, and mood so that they may find joy in their life again.
In our first session, I will take my time to get to know you. I want to know what brings you to treatment and what you seek to improve in your life. Whether it be depression, anxiety, or just simple adulting, living day to day is full of stress and hardship. I want better know the human being sitting in front of me so I can do my best to help in any facet I can, while taking into consideration your desires for positive change.
I am a very genuine and empathetic person. I truly enjoy getting to know my clients and their needs, as well as the little things that bring them happiness, joy, and give them reason to live life to the fullest. I am very upfront, blunt at times, but personable at the same time. I also have a strong sense of humor and love to make people laugh whenever I can.
I am particularly dedicated to working with individuals experiencing depression, bipolar disorder, and anxiety disorders, recognizing the complex interplay of biological, psychological, and social factors that shape mental health. My treatment philosophy integrates psychopharmacology with psychotherapy-informed interventions, emphasizing accurate diagnosis, thoughtful medication management, and ongoing reassessment to optimize outcomes. I hold a strong commitment to serving LGBTQIA+ populations with affirming and inclusive care. This includes recognizing the impact of minority stress, stigma, and systemic barriers on mental health, and ensuring that treatment plans reflect each patient’s identity, lived experience, and goals. I aim to reduce disparities in mental healthcare by fostering trust, advocating for equity, and maintaining a nonjudgmental stance in all clinical interactions.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
In practice, I try to create a safe and comfortable environment for my clients to share their thoughts, feelings, and needs. I offer holistically informed psychiatric medication management supported by mindfulness-based treatments that focus on exploring the self, motivations, and how living in the present can help improve many anxieties and stressors.
