I work with children, teens, and young adults ages 5–22 who are navigating ADHD, anxiety, mood disorders, behavioral challenges, and other neurodevelopmental differences. Many families come to me feeling frustrated or uncertain after trying to piece together support on their own. They’re looking for clear answers, thoughtful medication management when needed, and a provider who truly partners with them.
My approach is collaborative and family-centered. I take time to understand the full picture — not just symptoms, but how a child or teen is functioning at home, in school, and in their relationships.
As a child and adolescent nurse practitioner, I specialize in comprehensive, developmentally informed psychiatric care. I provide diagnostic assessment, medication management guided by current evidence, monitoring for side effects, and coordination with therapists, schools, and pediatricians. I prioritize safety, goals, and helping youth build skills.
I know seeking help for your child can feel overwhelming. I provide calm, respectful care that centers your child’s strengths and your family’s concerns. If you’d like a thoughtful, individualized approach to evaluation and treatment, I welcome you to reach out to discuss whether we might be a good fit.
