I am a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC) with additional board certification in psychiatry (PMH-BC). With over 18 years of experience in mental health and primary care, I am committed to providing a compassionate and non-judgmental environment where you feel heard and supported. My approach emphasizes active listening, open communication, and collaboration to develop personalized treatment plans that promote resilience and long-term well-being. Specializing in anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, and bipolar disorders in adults, I integrate a holistic, patient-centered approach to care.
I offer therapy, medication management, and evidence-based techniques such as CBT to address your specific needs. By fostering a supportive and understanding space, I help clients navigate their challenges, manage symptoms effectively, and work toward lasting emotional balance. Each session is tailored to your unique journey.
Whether through therapy, medication, or a combination of both, I strive to empower you in taking control of your mental health. Together, we will focus on building resilience, improving emotional well-being, and creating a path toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.
