Life brings challenges that can feel heavy and, at times, overwhelming. Emotional distress can be just as limiting as physical illness, affecting a person’s ability to function at home, at work, and in relationships. One of the most meaningful parts of my work is seeing patients make progress through thoughtful, whole-person mental health care after struggling with a range of psychiatric conditions. Prior to becoming a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I worked as a Registered Nurse across multiple inpatient and outpatient settings. Those experiences shaped my approach to care and solidified my commitment to supporting individuals living with mental health concerns. I provide psychiatric services with a focus on compassionate, individualized treatment.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner through the ANCC, providing care to adults ages 18 to 65 and older. My approach is collaborative and patient-centered, with a focus on helping individuals reach meaningful and sustainable improvements in their mental health through thoughtful medication management and supportive therapy. I work with a wide range of psychiatric conditions, including depression, bipolar and other mood disorders, anxiety disorders, PTSD, sleep disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, personality disorders, schizophrenia, and other psychotic disorders.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strength as a provider is treating all my patients with compassion, empathy, dignity, and respect.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I work best with adults who are looking for a supportive, nonjudgmental space to better understand themselves, manage anxiety or mood concerns, heal from past experiences, improve sleep, and build practical skills that lead to greater balance and confidence in daily life.
Psychoeducation
I use psychoeducation to empower patients with knowledge about their conditions, promoting self-awareness, informed decision-making, and effective coping strategies.

Tameka has been a wonderful psychiatrist to work with! She always listens and puts in the effort to get to know me and understand my circumstances. She treats you like a person, not just another medical label in a book. I know a lot of people who have needed to search for new psychiatrists to meet their needs and feel heard, Tameka was my first and last stop! I've been working with her for over a year, and she has helped me put together a plan to manage my severe depression/anxiety and bipolar.
