I am a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and a Family Nurse Practitioner with over 12 years of combined healthcare experience. My expertise includes both inpatient and outpatient mental health services, as well as acute care in internal medicine. Currently offering telepsychiatry services to patients aged 14 and older. I am available to assist my clients to manage their mental wellbeing through an integrative evidenced based approach, incorporating medication management, psychotherapy, and psychoeducation during each session. It is my belief that while diagnosis is given to guide the treatment process, each client is unique. I strive to collaborate with each client in creating personalized treatment plans to help achieve optimal health outcomes. I am keen on providing a supportive, trusting and encouraging atmosphere for all clients. The aim of each session is to empower clients to move their transitioning from “survival” perspective to “thriving” through an evidenced based array of care focused on mind, body, and soul. If you are interested in working with us to achieve your optimal well-being, then schedule your first session today.

My treatment methods

Supportive

At Integrated Telepsychiatry practice, psychoeducation involves providing patients with clear, evidence-based information about their mental health conditions, treatment options, and coping strategies. By explaining symptoms, causes, and treatment processes, we help patients understand their condition, reduce stigma, and empower them to make informed decisions. This also includes teaching relaxation techniques, healthy coping mechanisms, and lifestyle changes that improve well-being. This approach fosters a collaborative relationship, enhances treatment adherence, and promotes long-term mental health recovery.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

At Integrated Telepsychiatry practice, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to help patients identify and challenge negative thought patterns that contribute to emotional distress and unhealthy behaviors. Through structured sessions, patients learn to reframe distorted thoughts, develop problem-solving skills, and adopt healthier coping strategies. Our CBT approached is goal-oriented and practical, empowering patients to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions. We encourage self-reflection and active participation, promoting lasting changes in thinking and behavior to improve overall mental well-being.
