I am a board certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). I am known for my patient-centered approach, prioritizing the needs and preferences of patients. With my extensive experience and commitment to excellence, I continue to positively impact the lives of those I provide services to. In addition to the treatment of a variety of clinical concerns, including Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), anxiety, psychosis, mood disorders like bipolar disorder and depression, OCD, PTSD, and insomnia, I also provide psychotherapy ( CBT, DBT, Grief counseling and more).
I work well with diverse patient populations and foster trusting relationships to improve outcomes, provide a safe and supportive environment for patients. I provide evidence-based, compassionate, and comprehensive individualized care to all patients across the lifespan: children adolescents, adults and older adults.
I foster trusting relationships with patients and their families, ensuring an open communication and collaboration in care decisions. I collaborate effectively with healthcare professionals, including physicians, therapists, and social workers, to coordinate and optimize patient care to improve outcomes.
