Dually Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner.

You shouldn't have to struggle to get through the day nor should you have to settle for just feeling "OK". I believe the mind, body, and spirit should work together in harmony so that we may become our best selves, cope well during difficult times, and live the lives we truly deserve. I've found this can be achieved through psychotherapy, collaborating with other providers, good nutrition and sleep hygiene, physical exercise, discovering what brings us joy and in some cases medication management. Ultimately, I believe in a holistic & individualized approach, and if you think we may be a good fit, please reach out!

Psychiatric medications can be life-saving scaffolding in the journey to managing your mental health. Sometimes they are a lifelong; sometimes they are a situation- or life-season- specific – but you are completely in control of that long-term plan and it will always be an ongoing discussion. I am a huge advocate of integrating non-medication tools into your toolbox– self-awareness, routine, practical life changes, sunlight, activity, community, and self-compassion (the list goes on) can be small-but-huge steps to transformation. Sometimes medication can be the step to take in order to be able to build in life management skills.

Thank you for considering me for your psychiatric medication management needs. I have experience working with adults and children in both community mental health and private practice settings. Before I went to school for my Master’s degree, I worked as a registered nurse in a variety of clinical areas including oncology, critical care, and telemetry within the hospital setting. I consider myself a life-long learner and I am always reading the latest research in psychiatry to help my clients achieve optimal mental health and wellness outcomes.
