My 17 years of experience caring for patients across the lifespan, as an RN then NP, via different practice settings including outpatient psych/mental health, inpatient psych/mental health, acute care hospital, urgent care, and skilled nursing facilities/assisted livings has given me a wealth of knowledge to pull from to help you with the struggles you’re facing. I graduated from the University of Detroit Mercy with my bachelor's degree, from South University with my MSN, and graduated with my Post-Master's from Maryville University.
I want to not only improve your mental health, but guide you to achieve overall wellness. I will accomplish this through a client centered holistic approach. I will listen to your story, walk with you every step of the way, and give you the tools to help you live a healthier and more intentional life.
I'm here to help guide you on your journey! It would be my pleasure to help you find you, again!
