Psychiatrists in Towson, MD

I have worked in healthcare for over forty years, twenty of which working as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I love working with folks of all ages with short and long-term mental and physical conditions. I also enjoy helping those who are going through a rough patch that, as we all know, life tends to throw unexpectedly. I recognize that staying healthy requires a more complex treatment plan than simply prescribing a pill; although I can do that, I also offer tools to help you communicate, to feel better about yourself and your life, and to find your purpose and what brings you true, internal happiness.

I have a deep interest in helping you explore all aspects of your life-emotional,physical and spiritual. It is my belief that such an exploration will result in a conviction that it is your life that you are living, that it is you that is living it and no one else. It will help you feel that it is you that is in charge of your life and no one else.
