Hello, I am a certified AGNP and PMHNP (Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner). I am honored to have now been in the nursing field for over fifteen years. I have always held an interest in the mind and human behavior. Working in the adult outpatient program (PHP) program taught me a lot about the intertwined roles of nursing and social work, as well as allowed me the opportunity to teach coping skill classes (e.g., guided imagery, self-esteem, sleep hygiene, and medication adherence). Serving both private practice and elderly care clients, I specialize in treating ADHD, OCD, anxiety, depression, insomnia, and dementia.

I understand seeing a new provider or switching providers can be stressful, but I want my patients to know when it comes to their treatment, they play a major role. I always take into consideration what has previously worked well and what has not, and together we will create a treatment plan that best supports improving overall mental health with a focus on finding the right options for medication management and blended psychotherapy.

FAQ - Chronic Pain Psychiatrists
How does chronic pain affect mental health?
Living with chronic pain—whether due to an injury, illness, or another condition—can be an emotionally and physically debilitating experience. In addition to persistent discomfort, individuals with chronic pain often face disruptions to their routines, limitations in physical functioning, loss of independence, and challenges maintaining work or social relationships. These stressors can lead to or worsen symptoms of a variety of mental health conditions, such as depression or anxiety. Because chronic pain affects both the body and the mind, many individuals benefit from not only medical treatment for their pain but also psychiatric care to support their mental and emotional well-being.

How do psychiatrists treat chronic pain?
Psychiatrists who specialize in chronic pain understand how chronic pain can impact mood, sleep, motivation, and quality of life. They often use a combination of medication and psychotherapy to help clients manage the emotional aspects of chronic pain. This may include prescribing antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, or other medication types that can also assist with sleep or pain modulation. In therapy sessions, psychiatrists may use approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address negative thought patterns related to pain, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients cope with symptoms, and mindfulness-related techniques to help clients manage stress and improve resilience. Psychiatrists may also work collaboratively with pain specialists, primary care providers, and physical therapists to help ensure a client's care is coordinated across their different treating professionals.

How can I find a psychiatrist who specializes in chronic pain?
Psychology Today's online directory is a useful tool for finding psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) who have experience working with individuals managing chronic pain. The platform offers filters to narrow results based on areas of specialty—such as chronic pain and/or chronic illness—as well as details about therapeutic approach, insurance accepted, language preferences, and session fees. Reviewing these profiles can help individuals and families find the right mental health provider for their needs, whether seeking short-term support or ongoing care for chronic pain.
