About
I am a Nurse Practitioner in Psychiatry who specializes in adolescent, young persons, adults and older adult medication management for anxiety, depression , ADHD and cyclic mood disorders (bipolar disorders). I have been a nurse for over 40 years and a psychiatric NP for 12 years. I believe medication is only helpful when prescribed in small amounts and when the patient is full informed about what the medicine is expected to do to improve symptoms. Nurse Practitioners are "holistic" which means we are less interested in labeling you with a diagnosis and more interested in treating your distressing symptoms.
***TELE-PSYCHIATRY video appointments are now available for maximum health risk reduction during the pandemic. We can meet using the privacy of your microphone and video from your computer or smart phone. All appointments are covered by the insurances I accept. Call soon for more information.
I see patients who are committed to recovery and moving forward with their lives. I believe in explaining all the risks and benefits of medication to maximize your ability to make an informed decision.
