Life can change in an instant. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner & cancer survivor, I bring clinical expertise & deeply personal insight to the healing process. I understand how life’s most difficult challenges can impact your mental health, & sense of identity, purpose, and hope. It can feel overwhelming, frightening, & isolating. My personal & professional journey has shaped the way I care for others: with deep compassion, genuine empathy, & unwavering belief in the human capacity for healing and growth. My mission is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel truly seen, heard, understood & unconditionally supported.
I specialize in integrative psychiatry treating depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, & insomnia. I can help reduce anxiety, stabilize mood, process emotional trauma, cope with a new diagnosis, & increase ability to experience happiness, joy, & living a meaningful & fulfilling life. My approach includes medication, psychotherapy & holistic integrative methods.
Cancer was a wake up call to be brave, bold, courageous, & to love harder. As with all struggles, there is tremendous potential for growth. "I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear". -Nelson Mandela
