If you’re feeling unlike yourself and wondering “why am I so anxious or overwhelmed lately?”—you’re not alone. I specialize in helping overwhelmed women, pregnant and postpartum moms, and children feel calmer, more in control, and like themselves again. If you're struggling, please know you are not alone - healing is possible! As a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with specialized training in perinatal mental health, I provide thoughtful, evidence-based medication management for women and children as young as 5. While I primarily focus on women's health, perinatal and pediatric care, I also treat adults.
I commonly help patients with anxiety and depression, pregnancy-safe psychiatric care, ADHD medication for children and teens, mood changes, mom burnout, irritability, and feeling "not like yourself." While I do not provide therapy, I can connect you with trusted therapists and coordinate care to ensure you feel fully supported.
Patients often tell me they feel heard, understood, and never rushed. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable asking questions, expressing concerns, and taking an active role in your treatment. If you're ready to feel more like yourself again, reach out today to get started. I look forward to helping you heal!
