I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over ten years of experience in healthcare. I received my Master of Science in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing from St. Thomas University. I specialize in pediatric, adult, and geriatric psychiatric and mental health care. I provide personalized mental health treatment plans for adults and children, including medication management, psychiatric assessments, neurocognitive screening, and cognitive behavioral therapy.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During your initial visit, I will get to know you by taking a comprehensive medical and psychological history. I'll also inquire about your concerns, symptoms, medical history, family history, and medications. In addition to any presenting symptoms, I will consider situational factors such as genetics and interpersonal dynamics to determine the best possible treatment options for you.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I create an environment where your mental health is prioritized. I believe that mental health is just as important as physical health, and I am dedicated to removing barriers that prevent my clients from accessing the care they need.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I am an expert in caring for clients who struggle with Major Depressive Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Substance Use Disorders, Pediatric Disruptive Behaviors, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Schizophrenia, Bipolar I and Bipolar II, PTSD, and so much more.

This is the first person I have talked to that actually helps me. I do not ever feel judged. She listens and hears me. I enjoy speaking to her each and every time. After each session I feel better and more empowered.
