My ideal clients are adults seeking structured, evidence-based psychiatric evaluation and medication management for conditions such as anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, bipolar spectrum disorders, OCD, ADHD, trauma related symptoms, and stress related impairment. I also work with individuals experiencing mental health concerns across the reproductive lifespan, including PMS/PMDD, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, fertility related stress, and perimenopausal mood changes. Clients who appreciate a clear, clinically grounded approach, with respect, collaboration, and whole person care, tend to benefit most from my practice.
I support all adults across Illinois, especially women who are dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, and mood changes connected to reproductive health. With my training in women’s health and midwifery, I focus on care across the reproductive lifespan, including PMS/PMDD, pregnancy, post-partum changes, and perimenopause
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in real life. I offer psychiatric evaluation and medication management, along with practical guidance around sleep, stress, boundaries, and daily routines. If you’re looking for a provider who understands both mental health and women’s health, I would be honored to support you.
