If you’re reading this, I want you to know that you are not alone. Life can feel overwhelming, uncertain, and even exhausting at times—and it’s okay to admit that. Reaching out for support takes courage, not weakness, and it’s a powerful first step toward healing and growth. I want to acknowledge the strength it takes to consider therapy and the vulnerability that comes with seeking help. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or simply feeling stuck, I see you—and I honor your journey. My role is not to “fix” you, because you are not broken. I aim to walk beside you, creating a safe, empowering, space.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience in healthcare. My background spans psychiatry, critical care, anesthesia, and interventional mental health treatments such as TMS and ketamine therapy. What matters most to me, though, is you as a person, not just a diagnosis. I understand how overwhelming anxiety, depression, and emotional exhaustion can feel—especially when symptoms have been ongoing or treatments haven’t worked as hoped. My goal is to create a safe, respectful space where you feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment.

My ideal clients are women and adolescents who may appear high-functioning on the outside, but internally feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, anxious, or disconnected from themselves. Many are used to being the ones who keep everything moving while quietly struggling. I provide medication management for women and adolescents navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, burnout, and life transitions. Through thorough evaluations, precise diagnosis and thoughtful medication management, I help clients regain clarity, stability, a stronger sense of balance in their everyday lives.

My ideal client may feel anxious, depressed, or disconnected—possibly navigating life as an autistic adult or struggling with trauma, ADHD, or chronic health issues. They may be immigrants, like myself, carrying generational burdens or cultural silence around mental health. What they want is simple yet powerful: to be seen, heard, and guided with respect and clinical expertise on their path toward healing, clarity, and self-trust.

Welcome—I’m glad you’re here. Life has a way of testing us. Whether it’s the buzz of anxiety, the heaviness of depression, the impact of trauma, or the uncertainty of life transitions, the struggle can feel relentless. Yet even in those moments, growth and healing are possible. Philosophers from Marcus Aurelius to Voltaire knew that hardship is part of being human—and resilience is how we rise. My work centers on helping adults and young adults turn those challenges into strength, self-understanding, and balance.
