Things are tough all over! It can be hard to ask for & find help. I’m a warm, compassionate, Psychiatric Clinical Nurse Specialist in solo practice. I ONLY do "talk therapy,” using a combination of methods. I do NOT provide OR refill ADHD meds OR any prescriptions! Confidential (e-mail, text, video, phone) and remote - whatever way works for you. I mainly work with women, but welcome everyone! My specialties are reproductive mental health (PMDD, PMAD, pregnancy loss, infertility, menopause), anxiety/mood disorders, BPD, HSPs, loneliness, life transitions, eating disorders, digital nomads, nurses, emerging adults & college students.
You & I will be equal partners in your care, an interactive team. We'll decide together what will work best for you - short term problem solving, or longer, more in-depth help. As an APRN, I’m caring and holistic. I ensure that your physical, emotional, social & health concerns will be addressed. You will be treated with respect, with your dignity preserved.
Good lives are about good relationships. I value & care for those who cross my path. I’ll always be there for anyone who needs me. I’ll always be a listening ear. I know what it’s like to believe that no one cares. I know how just one person can change someone’s life. I’m here for anyone that needs me, to prove that compassion still exists. I’m here for you.
