Hi! I'm Elizabeth, and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). I practice in the state of PA. I provide psychiatric medication management for treatment of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, postpartum mental conditions, PTSD, OCD, ADHD, insomnia, among other mental health conditions. I am glad that you're seeking help to improve your quality of life. I also love to educate and collaborate as a team to find your optimal care.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During the initial 60 minute evaluation, we will discuss history and symptoms to gain clarity on diagnosis to guide our treatment plan moving forward. I will provide my diagnostic impression as well as evidence based treatment recommendations. The follow up visits will be 30 minutes to review medication response, side effects and risk/benefits. We will also discuss different stressors that are affecting your state of mind and ways to cope. I fully believe in a collaborative model to equip you in making decisions for your mental health care.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My goal is to empower you so that you can live your best life. If you are feeling stuck, I can provide an evaluation to clarify your diagnosis and treatment plan. My hope is to minimize medication use while optimizing your quality of life. I aim to provide compassionate and personalized care.
