Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner / Ages 14-60 / Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, Bipolar Disorder. New patient appointments within 1-2 weeks. Anxiety, mood changes, or trouble focusing can feel overwhelming—you don’t have to face it alone. I’m a dual board-certified psychiatric and family nurse practitioner providing personalized, compassionate care for individuals ages 14–60. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and related concerns, with a focus on helping you feel more balanced, confident, and in control of your life. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to you.
I take the time to truly listen, understand your experiences, and work with you to create a treatment plan that aligns with your goals. Whether you're considering medication for the first time or looking to refine your current treatment, I provide thoughtful, individualized medication management and ensure you feel informed and empowered in every decision.
Not sure if medication is right for you? That’s okay. We’ll move at your pace, exploring options together in a way that feels comfortable and pressure-free. I offer convenient telehealth appointments, accept major insurance plans, and accept self-pay. If you're ready to take the next step—or just want to learn more—I'd be happy to connect.
