I believe that mental health care is and should be a normal part of navigating the human experience. We all have our own unique experiences, goals, and challenges. My ideal client is someone who is looking to navigate through these experiences and challenges together.
My specialty as a board certified Primary Mental Health Nurse Practitioner has uniquely prepared me to support my clients by bridging the gap between the mind and body. I am both a therapist and a prescriber who is eager to work alongside your therapist to provide the individualized care that everyone deserves.
Everyone deserves a provider who is willing to work alongside other experts to develop the best treatment plan. You are the expert on yourself and I would love to work with you on understanding your experiences, collaborating with you on your goals and needs, and developing and managing a plan of care that will enable and empower you to achieve your goal.
