I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 20 years of experience in healthcare. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University in 2023 and my Doctor of Nursing Practice from Westminster University in 2026. My work is grounded in a deep commitment to compassionate, holistic, and patient-centered mental health care.
My approach to care is evidence-based, collaborative, and individualized. I use active listening, empathy, and a person-centered perspective to understand each client’s unique experiences. From there, I partner with clients to develop thoughtful treatment plans that may include assessment, diagnosis, treatment, education, & care coordination.
Clients can expect a warm, welcoming, and judgment-free environment where we take time to talk through their concerns, symptoms, history, and goals for care. My priority is to understand the full picture of what they are experiencing so we can begin identifying the support and treatment that will best meet their needs.
