My ideal client is a child, adolescent, or young adult navigating anxiety, depression, mood changes, autism, or life transitions. They may feel overwhelmed or stuck and are looking for support that’s compassionate, practical, and trauma-informed. They want to feel more in control, build confidence, and improve relationships. I meet them where they are and help them move forward with structure, empathy, and evidence-based care—always honoring their pace, voice, and goals.
As a doctorally-prepared psychiatric nurse practitioner, I offer medication management and solution-oriented supportive therapy for children, adolescents, and young adults with anxiety, depression, autism, and life transitions. My trauma-informed, evidence-based approach is collaborative, involving families to ensure lasting progress.
I understand how challenging it can be to face mental health struggles alone. You don’t have to go through this journey by yourself. I’m here to listen, support, and help you move forward. If you’re ready to take that first step, I invite you to reach out. Let’s work together to create meaningful change.
