I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with a master's degree in psychiatric nursing as well as a master's degree in Nursing Education. My extensive education and training in both fields enabled me to provide high-quality, evidence-based care to my clients and their families over the years. I am committed to collaboration and acceptance for individuals who may have experienced stigma and / or discrimination in the past to create a safe and supportive environment. I strive to create a welcoming and accepting atmosphere for all individuals, regardless of their background, ethnicity, race, gender, sexual preference, or religious or spiritual practice, and I am dedicated to providing inclusive and equitable care.
