My clients will gain deeper understanding of self and their mental health challenges. I am committed to help you build resilience, gain insight and guide you towards positive life changes. Our work together should help you feel equipped to navigate life's challenges with greater clarity and confidence. My focus is to improve quality-of-life & reach optimal well-being with a holistic/integrative approach and to end mental health stigma.

I am a board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a post masters degree from Maryville University/St. Louis. I have been caring for clients with mental health issues in/out of the hospital for over 18 years. I treat different issues such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, LGBTQ+ issues, men/women's health issues, ADHD amongst others.

I strive to provide diverse and culturally competent care & welcome clients across the lifespan including teenagers & older adults looking for mental health guidance. I believe in providing a judgment free space for patients to speak freely about whatever they are struggling with.
