Welcome to my profile! I am a licensed psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) located in Portland, OR. I offer psychotherapy and medication management to adults of all ages and backgrounds. My practice is relationally focused and inspired by various evidence-based frameworks, including Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I have a careful approach to prescribing medications, and I feel strongly that a holistic treatment plan leads to deeper recovery. I strive to meet you where you are, and I honor the life experience that has brought you here.
As a practitioner, I believe that our wellbeing rests upon many factors. Our social communities, professional lives, creative pursuits, and physical health all play a part. So too do our strategies for responding to the challenges life throws our way. Equally important are the sources of joy that orient us toward our values.
Growth and healing can be very challenging. I maintain that they can also be joyful processes of self-respect and empowerment. Sometimes, medications are a helpful tool on the journey, and I enjoy exploring this without expectation. Taking steps toward our wellbeing and long-term goals is a courageous act. I look forward to joining with you on your path.
