I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 17 years of experience in patient care. I specialize in treating a range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, ADHD/ADD, PTSD/trauma, bipolar disorder, postpartum depression, panic disorder, insomnia, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and OCD. My approach to mental healthcare is rooted in compassion and collaboration, combining evidence-based medication management with psychotherapeutic techniques such as Brief Supportive Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral strategies.
I primarily work with adult patients ages 18 to 99 and treat a wide range of mental health conditions, including ADHD/ADD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, postpartum depression, panic disorder, insomnia, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and alcohol use disorder.
I provide compassionate, patient-centered care that supports healing, resilience, and personal growth. My approach emphasizes creating a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment where each individual feels heard, respected, and empowered on their journey to mental wellness.
