I have been a double board-certified nurse practitioner for over 5 years, and I'm passionate about using my nearly 20 years of nursing experience to empower individuals struggling with mental health. Beyond my dedication to my family (married to a wonderful man and blessed with 4 lovely children), I find joy in exploring the world, having visited 5 continents! When I'm not caring for patients or navigating family life, I'm dreaming of adventures in the remaining two! Professionally, I find it incredibly rewarding to witness the positive transformations my patients go through. Helping them find relief from their struggles and build a fulfilling life is incredibly motivating. Also, mental health is an essential part of overall well-being. I am passionate about reducing stigma and helping people understand the importance of mental health care.

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

Clients can expect a focus on getting to know them and understanding their needs. The main focus of the first session, getting their mental health history, current symptoms, any medical history, social history. Based on the assessment, we would collaboratively discuss their goal for treatment and what improvement they hope to achieve. I hope to discussed potential treatments tailored to their needs, which might include talk therapy. I hope to discuss pros and cons of each options and answer any questions they might have. Finally, schedule a date to evaluate how treatment has been going since first our first session.

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

My greatest strength lies in my deep compassion for those seeking mental health support. I strive to create a safe and supportive space where clients feel truly heard and understood. Their struggles resonate with me, and I'm dedicated to alleviating their suffering. However, compassion goes hand-in-hand with a solution-oriented approach. I don't just listen; I actively work alongside clients to identify the root of their challenges. I'm skilled at collaboratively developing evidence-based treatment plans tailored to their unique needs. For instance, a client struggling with anxiety might benefit from mindfulness techniques alongside medication. By combining my empathy with a solution-focused approach, I can empower them to manage their anxiety and improve their quality of life.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy that can help you manage negative thoughts and emotions that contribute to problems in your daily life. I use this therapy treatment by first collaborating with the patient and identifying unhelpful thinking patterns. Next, I challenge and help patients reframe negative thoughts. Together we developed realistic coping skills.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

Mindfulness-based therapy is a type of psychotherapy that combines mindfulness meditation practices with traditional talk therapy techniques. I use this to aim to increase patients' awareness of their present moment experiences, thoughts, and feelings without judgment. By cultivating this present moment awareness, patients can learn to detach from unhelpful thought patterns and emotional responses, ultimately reducing stress, anxiety, and symptoms of depression. I used this therapy by practicing mindful breathing, body scan meditation, mindful movement.
