You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or frustrated with patterns that don’t seem to change. Maybe anxiety is constant, depression has drained your motivation, ADHD is affecting your focus, or past trauma continues to resurface. You want clarity, stability, and relief — not just for today, but long term. You want to feel like yourself again, function better at school or work, and regain control of your emotions instead of feeling controlled by them.
As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I treat adolescents (13+) and adults with depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, mood disorders, and related concerns. I provide thorough evaluations and individualized treatment plans, including medication management when appropriate, with a focus on lasting stability and improved functioning.
I understand how discouraging it can feel to struggle silently or to feel misunderstood. You deserve care that is thoughtful, compassionate, and grounded in clinical expertise. If you’re ready for clarity, support, and a structured path forward, I welcome the opportunity to work with you.

I work with individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, mood disorders, and life stress. In early sessions, we clarify your goals, identify patterns, and build a focused plan using therapy and, when appropriate, medication. Many clients experience improved clarity, emotional stability, and confidence within the first month, with steady, lasting progress over time.

I use CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Person-Centered, and supportive therapy. Our first sessions focus on understanding your story and goals. We'll examine thought patterns, strengthen motivation, and build practical coping skills in a collaborative, nonjudgmental space—so you leave each session with clarity, direction, and tools you can actually use.
