I specialize in treating the mental health needs of children and adults using a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to care, including therapy, lifestyle modifications, and medications when indicated. I always appreciate input from families, outside therapists, and teachers when developing treatment plans. My special interests include autism spectrum disorders, anxiety, depression, ADHD, behavioral disorders, trauma, trichotillomania, tic disorders, and gender dysphoria. While I am specially trained to see children and adolescents, I also enjoy caring for adults with autism and those with women’s mental health needs.
I am a double board-certified psychiatrist in general and child/adolescent psychiatry. A native of central Arkansas, I completed my BA in psychology at Hendrix College in Conway before pursing medical school, residency, and fellowship at UAMS in Little Rock. I served as chief resident in my final year of fellowship training.
I typically see patients by telemedicine and in the office in Conway. It can be challenging to fit in appointments while juggling school, work, and other commitments, so I am very accustomed to seeing my patients and their families while "on the go" using an easy, secure telemedicine platform.

For children, I like to use several different evidence-based measures to help determine the severity of baseline symptoms, which we then further discuss verbally during the initial appointment both directly with the patient and with the parent/guardian. We then use that information to develop a comprehensive treatment plan to address academic, social, medical, behavioral, and emotional needs.
