I work with adults ages 18–68 who are navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, or major life transitions. My ideal client is open, reflective, and motivated for meaningful change. They may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves and are seeking clarity, healing, and support. They value a provider who listens without judgment and offers thoughtful, evidence-based medication management in a space that prioritizes inclusivity, respect, and cultural humility. I offer both tele-health and in-person services and strive to support each client’s unique path toward balance, clarity, and lasting emotional wellness.
I'm a board-certified PMHNP with a Doctor of Nursing, over 3 years of experience in med mg'mt and psychiatric care. Clients can expect a thoughtful, collaborative session where they feel heard, respected, supported in the their mental health journey. I focus on understanding the whole person. Together, we work toward clarity, stability, and lasting progress
Starting therapy or medication can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you’re feeling anxious, low, or just not yourself, I invite you to reach out. I offer a warm, supportive space where we can explore what you’re experiencing and find the best path forward. You deserve care that meets you where you are—I’m here to help you.
