Mental health challenges can leave you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply not like yourself. I work with teens and adults experiencing depression, anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma, OCD, substance use, and other mental health concerns. Whether you are considering medication for the first time or looking for a different approach, you deserve care that considers the whole person, not just your symptoms. At Waterstone, our team works together to provide compassionate, individualized care and support you in finding greater balance, well-being, and a path forward.
As both a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and clinical social worker, I bring a unique perspective to psychiatric care. With over a decade of mental health experience, I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management while taking the time to understand your story, concerns, and goals so we can find an approach that works for you.
Taking the first step toward feeling better can be difficult, and you do not have to figure it out alone. I strive to provide a warm, nonjudgmental, and affirming space where you feel heard, respected, and comfortable being yourself. Together, we can build on your strengths and work toward meaningful change. Reach out today to schedule an appointment.

Medication management is about more than choosing a pill. I take time to understand your symptoms, experiences, concerns, and needs. We will discuss medication options, expected benefits and potential side effects, and work together to find an approach that feels right for you. My goal is to help reduce the symptoms impacting your daily life while supporting your overall well-being.
