Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, RN, BSN, PMHNP
1 Endorsed

I specialize in providing compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care across the entire developmental spectrum—from young children struggling to find their words, to adolescents navigating identity and pressure, to adults carrying decades of unspoken weight.
My ideal client is someone who arrives at our first session feeling tired of themselves—tired of the loop they've been stuck in, tired of explaining their struggles to providers who only seem to hear the DSM code, not the human story behind it. They've likely seen other clinicians before, collected a few diagnoses along the way, and maybe even tried medications that helped around the edges but never quite reached the center of the pain. They come to me not with demands, but with a quiet, almost fragile hope: Maybe this time someone will actually listen. Maybe this time we'll figure out what's really going on.

FAQ - About Teenage Psychiatry
What does an adolescent psychiatrist do?
Adolescent psychiatrists specialize in the mental health care of pre-teens and teens. Unlike general child psychiatrists who may treat anyone under 18 years old, adolescent psychiatrists often concentrate on youth ages 12 to 18 and are well-versed in the social, cognitive, and emotional issues that specifically affect teenagers. They focus on the unique challenges that arise during these years, such as academic pressure, social and peer dynamics, identity development, family conflict, and increasing emotional and behavioral expectations. In addition, adolescence is often the time when mood disorders, anxiety, eating disorders, or substance use concerns first emerge or intensify.

Psychiatrists who work with teens are trained to address these issues and often use a combination of talk therapy, cognitive behavioral approaches, and, when indicated, medication to treat these specific conditions. Psychiatrists with expertise in this area are also skilled at engaging teenagers in the therapeutic process and may have particular expertise in balancing the involvement of the teen's family in treatment in a way that balances the teen’s needs and growing independence. They also frequently coordinate care with schools, therapists, and other providers to ensure teens receive well-rounded support.

How to find a psychiatrist for teens?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows users to search for psychiatrists by age-focus, making it easy to find psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) who work with teens. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approach, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. These details can help you evaluate whether a psychiatrist aligns with your teen's needs and is a good fit.
