As a Doctor in Nursing Practice with over 15 years of nursing experience, I am passionate about helping people feel better and function at their best. I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, OCD, ADHD, and other mental health challenges. My style is warm, supportive, and collaborative — I believe treatment works best when you feel comfortable, understood, and involved in your care. Together, we develop a personalized plan that may include medication management, education, and practical coping strategies to support long-term well-being.
My professional services and specialization encompass Childhood/Adolescent and Adult Diagnosis and Treatment, including Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, OCD, PTSD, Suicide Prevention, and schizoaffective disorder.
I strive to create a safe and welcoming space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. Whether you are seeking help for the first time or continuing your mental health journey, my goal is to support you in achieving stability, resilience, and a better quality of life.

We work with patients who may be struggling with depression, anxiety, bipolar, or any other mental problems. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
