I provide psychiatric care, including diagnosis, medication management, consultations, and supportive counseling. I have enjoyed worked with many diverse groups, including members of the LGBTQ community, college students and professionals on all levels, individuals adjusting to cultural changes, persons in life-stage transitions, and those living with chronic disease. My interaction style ranges from supportive, directive, or challenging depending on the client's needs and goals. I maintain a collaborative and respectful approach, and establish a safe therapeutic environment with compassion, empathy, and significant dose of humor.

My current focus is caring for clients in early through middle adulthood experiencing Depressive Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, OCD, ADHD (with documented Neuropsychological Testing), Somatic Disorders, Sleep Disorders, Gender Dysphoria, and Trauma. I practice evidence/scientific-based care and collaborative care with therapists, PCPs, and specialists.
With 30 years of experience as a Nurse Practitioner, maintaining board certifications as a Psychiatric/Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and an Adult Nurse Practitioner (ANP-BC), I bring an expanded focus to the evaluation and treatment of my clients that considers and integrates their unique social, psychological, and medical characteristics.
