My ideal client is someone aged 13 or older who is struggling with anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, PTSD, bipolar disorder, ADHD, insomnia, or adjustment issues. They seek compassionate, judgment-free support and want a collaborative, personalized approach to help them navigate and manage these challenges. Their goals include feeling more balanced, reducing distressing symptoms, and achieving mental wellness through a treatment plan that respects their unique needs and values.
As a board-certified PMHNP, I offer holistic, evidence-based mental health care, including medication management and lifestyle modifications tailored to individual needs. Specializing in anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and more, I guide clients toward well-being with an approach that respects their whole person—mind, body, and spirit.
I understand that seeking help can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face these challenges alone. My approach is empathetic, compassionate, and entirely judgment-free. I am here to support you in finding the clarity and balance you deserve on your mental health journey. I invite you to take this step with me; together, we can work toward your goals.
