I'm a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a Doctorate in Nursing Practice and over 8 years of experience in mental health. My goal is to support you with compassionate, evidence-based care as you face life’s challenges. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, or ADHD, I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and understood. Together, we’ll explore the right tools and treatments to help you manage emotions, build resilience, and move toward a more fulfilling future. You deserve to feel better—and I’m here to help!
Specializing in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques, I help clients gain practical tools to overcome obstacles, reduce stress, and build lasting resilience. My goal is not just to treat symptoms, but to empower you with the skills you need to thrive in all aspects of life. You don’t have to face it alone — I’m here to walk beside.
In my practice, I create a supportive and non-judgmental space where you are truly seen and heard. I tailor my approach to meet your unique needs, helping you feel understood and empowered as you work toward your goals. Together, we’ll focus on setting realistic, achievable goals, building effective coping strategies, and gaining a deeper understanding.
