You can’t separate the patient and the patient’s symptoms from the human being you’re interacting with. That person could be a husband, a dad, or a mom. That person could be working two jobs just to keep a roof over their head. You have to see that patient as an important part of society.

Although carefully chosen medications can quickly achieve much needed relief of anxiety, depression, insomnia and trauma symptoms, a thorough evaluation can also identify many opportunities for improvement without medications. The most effective treatment plan may include work-life balance, nutrition and sleep strategies, addressing, avoiding or adapting to triggers, in addition to multiple psychotherapies. When needed, medications with the lowest side effects, easiest to use, most predictably effective & not addictive are recommended. Ultimately, it is up to each person to decide which strategies they will use to achieve wellness.

As a prescriber, I specialize in helping people feel seen and heard, find the way to their goals, help to create a treatment plan to support their goals and determine if medications can be helpful along the way. Trained at UCSF, with more than 20 years of experience working in mental health, and a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, I function similar to a psychiatrist. I assess and diagnose mental health conditions and create treatment plans focusing on wellness, therapy, nutritional psychiatry, and prescribe - when appropriate - psychiatric medications for children, adolescents, and adults.

Do you suffer from chronic health issues like addiction, depression, anxiety, and chronic pain? Do you feel like you've seen many doctors and counselors, but still have not found the answer to your health concerns? Are you ready to take back your life and health? Like you, I always wished to find a doctor who took an alternative and natural approach to medicine and health. I wanted a doctor who could recommend more than just medicines and surgery. Someone who would appreciate the connection of mind and body, the importance of stress on health, and the role of the mind in healing.

My intention is to provide compassionate and thoughtful treatment for every child, adolescent and adult I work with. I often see people who are uncertain if they want medicine and are concerned about the potential risks. I will listen carefully to your concerns, conduct a complete assessment, and then discuss the pro's and con's of your different treatment options so you can make the best decision for yourself or your child. I often recommend combinations of psychotherapy and medications. I have found that carefully prescribed medication frequently enables people to grow more rapidly in psychotherapy.

My lifelong passion has been to understand and support the complex mental, emotional, and behavioral journeys of adults, children, and adolescents. Every individual I have had the privilege to work with has taught me something new. My dedication to the younger demographic led me first to Yale to learn advanced psychiatric care and then to SUNY for a fellowship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. Here, I delved deep into the nuanced challenges faced by young minds and how to best address and support their unique needs. My time at SUNY gave me invaluable experiences and insights into the delicate balance of young psyches.
