I am a dedicated and experienced Family Nurse Practitioner with a speciality in psychiatry, offering virtual consultations through Hearts and Minds Healthcare Services PLLC. I hold a master's degree in Family Health Nursing from D'Youville University, along with an advanced certificate in Psychiatry and Mental Health Nursing from Purdue University.
During consultations, my approach to care, centers around truly listening to my patients—understanding their concerns, explaining their conditions, and working together to create personalized treatment plans that align with their unique needs.
I believe in building long-term relationships with my patients, empowering them to take charge of their health while ensuring they feel supported every step of the way. My goal is to help you not just manage your health, but to thrive in it."

I use CBT, DBT, Motivational interviewing to mention a few based on individual presentation and needs. I will pick a therapy modality that will be beneficial to each individual. I will discuss meditation management to help improve your condition as a combination of both medication and psychotherapy usually yields the most success.
