As Doctors of Nursing Practice (DNP), Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners (PMHNP) licensed to prescribe psychiatric medication across the lifespan, we collaborate with patients and their therapists to use medications judiciously, and only when necessary. As practitioners, we value our shared humanity, and encourage compassion, humility, connection and empathy. Please reach out to us directly by email to begin the enrollment process and to schedule an evaluation time, thank you.
We are currently scheduling virtual tele-psychiatry one-hour evaluations for and 30-minute revaluations. Please email our office manager Nikki to learn more.
The basic idea is that within each of us is the capacity to heal and a desire to maintain balance. Whether struggling with complex trauma, relational dynamics that may be holding us back, or illnesses such as bipolar, thought disorders, chronic depression and/or anxiety; it is important to recognize and empower each person where they might be vulnerable.
