Do you feel in the dark when it comes to managing your mental health? Our mission at Blue Lily Psychiatry is to empower our clients to take control of their mental health. I am board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over 10 years of psychiatric experience. My approach to well-being begins with compassion and understanding by offering you the guidance and support you need. You are part of the treatment plan so I work with you to develop the best treatment plan that is going to work for you. We make it easy to get started on your path to well-being with convenient online scheduling and flexible scheduling with daytime and evening appointment availability. So let's make it happen and get you back in control today.
In our first session together, we'll start with identifying symptoms and how they are affecting your overall functioning. We'll also go over your medical and psychiatric history, and current and past medication trials. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
My biggest strengths are listening to each client and taking all areas of their life into consideration when developing a treatment plan. It's important to recommend a treatment plan that the client is a part of and willing to participate in.
I love working with professionals who are struggling with increased stressors that are affecting their day-to-day functioning. My clients often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious.
I educate my patients on what is causing their mental health symptoms, such as neurotransmitter dysfunction or medical conditions that can exacerbate symptoms. I also educate patients on how the medications work to help them feel better so they can understand why certain medications are choose to treat their symptoms.
