I am a board-certified Advanced Practice Nurse in Arizona, specializing in Psychiatry and Family Practice. With over 15 years of nursing experience — including nearly a decade in advanced practice — I bring a diverse clinical background that spans skilled nursing facilities, serious mental illness clinics, and private practice settings. As a former nursing professor and educator, I am passionate about combining clinical expertise with education to support my patients. My primary focus is to promote healing of the mind, body, and spirit by helping individuals restore emotional, mental, and physical balance in their lives.
My practice provides psychiatric evaluations and medication management in person and via telehealth, offering personalized care wherever you are. I treat PTSD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and schizophrenia, with a special interest in supporting individuals with autism spectrum disorder.
We strive to provide a supportive, non-judgmental environment to help you achieve symptom improvement. Collaborating with you and your providers to ensure the highest level of care is my priority. I am here, ready to support you. Schedule your appointment today.
