I work with children, adolescents, young adults, and adults (ages 5+) seeking affirming care for mental health concerns or developmental differences. With 11 years of experience as a PMHNP, I support individuals managing anxiety, mood symptoms, attention challenges, and seeking greater clarity. I also provide COE autism evaluations for youth and adults and have conducted autism assessments since 2018, including for those seeking answers later in life, using a respectful, strengths-based approach.
With 10 years of experience, I specialize in serving children, adolescents, and young adults. My person-centered approach to client care emphasizes affirming care, creating a nurturing environment for growth and adaptation. Safe, Quality, Professional, Inclusive, and Compassionate care are my practice values.
I invite you to apply through the "Apply Here" button on my site if you need help with evaluations for mental health or autism. I am taking clients for medication management who have private insurance age 5-25. I am offering evaluations for Apple Health insurance members of any age.

Shared decision making is infused into therapy with medication management appointments. We will work to find ways of coping, adapting, and understanding that behavior is communication. I meet clients where they are.
