When I shifted from ER nursing to psychiatry, I discovered the power of lasting patient relationships. After years managing acute trauma, I now deeply value building ongoing connections, helping patients overcome challenges with compassion and empathy. My goal is not just to medicate but to understand your whole story—home life, work stress, and underlying struggles. Whether managing ADHD, anxiety, or complex conditions, I'm here to partner with you, addressing root causes and helping you find sustainable relief and meaningful progress.
My treatment approach blends thoughtful medication management with personalized therapy techniques, including CBT, DBT, and practical lifestyle coaching. I offer actionable strategies, such as somatic exercises and cognitive reframing, empowering you to take charge of your wellness between visits.
Through our secure telehealth platform at Legion Health, our sessions will be conversational, unrushed, and truly personalized. My priority is building genuine trust and rapport so you feel heard and supported each step of the way. Let's work together to help you reclaim balance, clarity, and fulfillment in your life.
