Do you suffer from feelings of stress, depression, anxiety, and/or intense emotions related to past traumatic experiences? Welcome to our practice. We are committed to creating a safe and empowering environment where women can openly explore their challenges, discover their inherent strengths, and embark on a transformative journey of healing, growth, and self-discovery. As a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner passionate about holistic care, I bring over 25 years of experience providing empathetic, innovative, and evidence-based services. Namaste
If you already have a therapist, we can see you for medication management sessions. I can provide you with expert guidance that addresses your particular circumstances. We seek to help you relieve troublesome symptoms in the short term and foster lasting transformation for a lifetime.
Sammy (my certified pet therapy dog) further enhances a warm non-judgmental atmosphere that helps you feel at ease as we assess your unique needs, concerns, and goals.
