I built Women’s Mental Health Specialists because I know what it feels like to be unheard, misdiagnosed, or stuck in a treatment that just isn’t working. Women’s mental health is complex, and too often, it’s treated with guesswork. I refuse to let that happen here. My mission is to get the diagnosis right, build a team that actually supports you, and create a plan that gets real results. Whether you’re struggling with ADHD, trauma, anxiety, or the impact of hormonal shifts, I’m here to help you understand what’s happening, regain control, and move forward with confidence.

I treat anxiety, mood disorders, ADHD, insomnia, OCD, and PTSD. These conditions can leave people feeling stuck. What is often missing is clarity about the underlying cause. I help adults identify what is really going on and build a clear plan so they can think clearly, feel in control, and function at a higher level.
