Most people come to psychiatry when something no longer feels manageable. My role is to slow things down, bring clarity, and help make sense of what feels confusing or overwhelming.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with experience across acute inpatient and outpatient psychiatry. I’ve worked in mental health since 2018 and have continued practicing outpatient psychiatry following my graduate training at Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science in 2022.
My approach is collaborative and trauma-informed. I listen carefully, avoid rushed conclusions, and involve you in every decision. Treatment is individualized — not cookie-cutter — and grounded in understanding what’s driving your symptoms so we can choose a path forward that’s thoughtful, realistic, and sustainable.
