If you’re feeling the weight of expectations, whether from family, culture, or your own inner voice, you’re not alone. As a woman of color, daughter of immigrants, veteran, single mom, and psychiatric nurse practitioner, I understand how complex life can be. I offer compassionate, trauma-informed psychiatric care that respects your full story. Whether you're dealing with ADHD, anxiety, trauma, depression, or parenting stress, I’m here to help you feel seen, supported, and empowered.
I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, psychoeducation, and therapeutic guidance rooted in evidence-based care for ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, and mood disorders. To support your healing, I offer flexible appointments outside standard business hours, including evenings and weekends. Let’s build a plan that truly fits your life.
You don’t have to go through this alone. If you’re looking for care that’s thoughtful, human, and truly supportive, I’d be honored to meet you where you are. When you're ready, reach out, we’ll take the next step together.
