I provide psychiatric care in Charleston, SC, for children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and stress-related challenges. I have a special focus on adolescents, postpartum and perinatal women, and adults experiencing burnout, including healthcare professionals and first responders, but I also welcome patients outside these areas. My 14+ years as an ICU nurse continue to shape how I practice psychiatric care — emphasizing empathy, collaboration, and a deep understanding of how stress, trauma, and life transitions affect mental health.
I specialize in helping patients manage postpartum anxiety or depression, teen mood and behavior challenges, and burnout or compassion fatigue in high-stress professions. I take a thoughtful, individualized approach, ensuring that each patient’s treatment plan is safe, evidence-based, and tailored to their unique needs
Reaching out for psychiatric care can feel vulnerable, and it’s okay to feel unsure. If you’re looking for supportive, personalized care in a space where you feel heard and understood, I would be honored to work with you.
