I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of nursing experience and a deep passion for mental health and recovery. My own 16-year journey in long-term recovery allows me to connect with clients on a genuine level—offering empathy, understanding, and hope through shared experience. I believe that addiction and mental illness do not define who you are; they can become the foundation for healing, growth, and purpose. My goal is to help you recognize that this is only one season of your life—not the whole story—and to walk beside you as you write the next chapter.
I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care with a focus on whole-person wellness. I offer evaluations, medication management, talk therapy, integrative psychiatry, and medication-assisted recovery. My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and judgment-free—helping you feel supported, understood, and empowered.
You deserve to feel heard, supported, and understood. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to turn, you’re not alone. I offer a safe, compassionate space to explore what you’re going through and take the next steps toward healing. When you're ready, I’m here to help you begin that journey.
