Welcome. I'm glad you're here. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. If you're ready to take steps toward improving your emotional well-being, I'm here to help. In our collaborative process, I assess and diagnose mental health conditions, as well as prescribe and manage medications to improve symptoms. In the course of our visits, we will discuss symptoms, review medication options and consider what other factors are impacting your overall well being. My patients have a variety of needs, including brief medication focused visits, as well as longer sessions where we blend therapy with our medication management.
While medication can be a useful (at times essential) tool, many factors impact our mental health. Quality support includes holistic evaluation. I have interest in functional & alternative medicine and work to support patients to develop non-pharmacological interventions and goals that align with their personal philosophy, their time, and their resources.
Grounded in an ongoing commitment to collective liberation, I strive to acknowledge racism, sexism & ableism in psychiatry. I bring expert knowledge of psychiatric care, but I rely on you to be the expert of your complex intersections of identity and your lived experience. I approach our work as invited guest offering guidance and support to your journey.
