Psychiatrists in 15213
As a nurse practitioner, I've practiced in family medicine, wound care, plastic surgery, urgent care, and perioperative and hospital medicine. This broad clinical foundation allows me to approach care holistically, recognizing the connection between physical and mental health. In my psychiatric practice, I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, ADHD, personality disorders, and schizophrenia. I care for clients across the lifespan who may be navigating life transitions, emotional distress, chronic mental health conditions, or seeking greater stability and quality of life.

Unlike other providers who talk at you instead of with you, I do things differently. Mental healthcare should feel personal, not transactional. I bring authenticity and connection into every session so you’ll never feel like “just another patient.” While I provide skilled medication management to ease symptoms and restore balance, I also know medicine alone isn’t enough. I take time to understand your story and walk alongside you in creating lasting change. Together, we’ll look beyond the prescription to what really matters to you, building something meaningful, not just a treatment plan.
