I have worked in healthcare for over forty years, twenty of which working as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I love working with folks of all ages with short and long-term mental and physical conditions. I also enjoy helping those who are going through a rough patch that, as we all know, life tends to throw unexpectedly. I recognize that staying healthy requires a more complex treatment plan than simply prescribing a pill; although I can do that, I also offer tools to help you communicate, to feel better about yourself and your life, and to find your purpose and what brings you true, internal happiness.

My practice is primarily Child and Adolescent Psychiatry.
Medication is not indicated for every condition. I believe that children and adolescents need and deserve individual and family therapy even if they are on medication. I provide psychotherapy along with any medication for my patients. I do not see patients only for prescriptions. I also may refer my patients to very experienced family therapist
