Healing begins with feeling heard. If you've been struggling with anxiety, mood changes, racing thoughts, or emotional exhaustion, you're not alone. It may be difficult to relax, sleep well, or feel like yourself again. Many people I work with are looking for a provider who truly listens and helps them feel understood. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I provide thoughtful, personalized medication management combined with a whole-person approach to support emotional stability, resilience, and long-term well-being.
I specialize in collaborative medication management for anxiety, depression, ADHD, and related conditions. Treatment is individualized to your needs and goals and may also include education, mindfulness, lifestyle strategies, exercise, and other evidence-informed approaches that support overall mental wellness when appropriate.
Seeking help can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to navigate it alone. My goal is to create a supportive, respectful space where you feel heard, understand your treatment options, and gain confidence in your path forward. Support is available, and meaningful change begins with a simple conversation.

Feeling overwhelmed, constantly worried, or not like yourself? I specialize in anxiety, depression, and postpartum mental health. Motherhood isn't always just joy—it can feel exhausting and uncertain. I support those used to holding it all together but struggling inside, with a calm, collaborative approach. Healing begins with feeling heard. Support starts with a simple conversation.

In addition to medication and traditional therapy, I use clinical hypnotherapy to encourage helpful cognitive, emotional, or physical healing responses. You are always aware and in control, but these techniques allow us to work together to overcome conscious resistance.
