Are you struggling with everyday life? Or just not able to push through to find your happy place again? I am a nurse practitioner, board certified in both Family Practice and Psychiatric Mental Health, with over 28 years of experience in many areas of healthcare. I am committed to helping patients restore balance by achieving optimal psychological well-being. With extensive experience, my focus is the care of patients with mood and personality disorders, PTSD, and a special focus on mental health conditions in college students. FLEXIBLE SCHEDULING AVAILABLE w/ weekends & evenings.
I will work closely with you to reach a safe, effective, and individualized plan of care to help you get back to living the best version of you. Providing both psychotherapy and medication management are integral parts of your treatment plan. My philosophy is that medications (when deemed appropriate) "help you stand" and psychotherapy "gets you walking".
Restoring balance between your psychological and physical health is a team effort. Schedule your appointment today to get started on your journey to mental wellness.

I believe that therapy is as important as medication, if not more. Medications get you standing and therapy gets you walking. Through a holistic approach will help you learn to think and process things differently, which in turn will help you to behave and respond differently to psychosocial stressors in your everyday life. Let me help you find that balance for better overall health benefit.
