Are you struggling with anxiety, ADHD, mood symptoms, or substance use that is affecting your relationships, work, or everyday life? You don't have to navigate it alone. I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing compassionate, individualized psychiatric care through convenient telehealth appointments. My areas of focus include ADHD, anxiety disorders, and substance-use disorders, including opioid use disorder. I also provide psychiatric medication management for depression, bipolar disorder, and other mental health concerns. My goal is to understand you as a whole person—not simply treat a diagnosis.
I provide compassionate treatment for opioid use disorder, including buprenorphine/Suboxone treatment when clinically appropriate. Treatment includes medication management, recovery support, education, and individualized care to help patients reduce cravings, manage withdrawal, and work toward lasting recovery through telehealth.
Reaching out for mental health care can be difficult, but taking the first step can make a difference. If you're ready to discuss your concerns and explore treatment options, I invite you to schedule a telehealth appointment. We can work together to develop a treatment plan tailored to your individual needs.
