(she/her)
I am a dual-board certified family (FNP-C) and psychiatric (PMHNP-BC) nurse practitioner with over 15 years of experience in the healthcare field. Dual certification has allowed me to have a better and deeper understanding of the body and the mind. I provide evidence-based, medical and holistic approaches to mental health. Choosing the right provider to manage your care and treatment is the next step.
During your initial visit, an extensive physical and mental health history is obtained. Past and present mental health issues are further explored as well as any past and/or current treatments. Afterwards I will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan and assist you with your mental health goals. Your treatment plan can include possible medications (if appropriate), psychotherapy, and/or treatment that goes beyond including lifestyle changes and/or adequate coping skills.
I have 15+ yrs of healthcare experience, working in oncology, pain, internal medicine, inpatient psych, and more. I use an evidenced-based medical and holistic approach to treatment.
I provide medication management and supportive psychotherapy for patients 6 years and older, focusing on depression, anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, psychosis, and more. I strive to create a welcoming and supportive environment for all patients and am willing to work collaboratively to address your unique needs and concerns. Start your journey to mental health and wellness, today.
Supportive
I often use supportive therapy to help improve symptoms, build self-esteem, and increase skills. During treatment we will learn what is indicated including the possible need for acute stabilization, basic coping skills, case management, safety, and resources.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I often use CBT with patients dealing with anxiety, stress, and/or depression by teaching them how to develop the skills necessary to stop negative thinking and start thinking and behaving more positively.
Compassion Focused
I often use CFT to assist with promoting mental and emotional healing by encouraging patients to be compassionate toward themselves and others.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I use mindfulness based therapy in combination with cognitive therapy and meditation to address issues such as depression.
Motivational Interviewing
I use MI to address issues such aa addiction and the management of physical health that in turns helps patients become motivated to change the behaviors that are preventing them from making healthier choices.
