I am a board-certified Nurse Practitioner (NP). I have worked to manage a wide variety of mental health concerns such as crisis intervention, depression, anxiety, ADHD, school and social issues, personality disorders, adjustment disorders, caregiver fatigue, and addiction disorders. I am easy to talk to and strive to help you feel comfortable with sharing in order to best manage your mental and emotional health. I am compassionate in providing comprehensive mental health services to all ages. My role as a PMHNP includes being a medication manager, therapist, educator, and mental health advocate.
I hold a Master's in Nursing (MSN) from Walden University and a Bachelor's degree in psychology from Campbell University. With more than 18 years of counseling and nursing experience, I provide clients with medication management, incorporate various therapeutic techniques to improve mental health, and stay updated on current trends.
I often say, "Life is a challenge. It’s okay not to be okay. You have faced things that you never thought you would have to face over the last few years." I can assist you with managing or balancing your life's expedition, to create or reconnect with your better self. If you are ready to take the next steps to wellness, I am here to help.
