With 45 years of healthcare experience, I bring deep compassion and clinical expertise to my work. I am passionate about helping individuals, both young and old, cope with life’s challenges, build resilience, and achieve emotional well-being through personalized, empathetic care. My approach integrates one's life experiences with evidence-based practices with a strong commitment to healing, personal growth, and lifelong wellness.

As a PMHNP-BC, I provide compassionate, personalized psychiatric care for adults, offering therapy, medication management, and support for mental wellness in a safe space.

As a PMHNP-BC, I offer compassionate, judgment-free care for adults. You’re not alone—reach out when you're ready. Healing begins with connection. I’m here for you. Additionally, my Australian Cattle Dog is in my office, and he will be happy to sit and comfort you.
