Hello, I’m a licensed psychiatric mental health NP, dedicated to providing compassionate and evidence-based mental health care. I believe in a holistic approach that combines medication management, psychotherapy, and lifestyle interventions to support patients in achieving emotional well-being and balance. My focus areas include anxiety disorders, depression, Bipolar, ADHD, PTSD, trauma, and sleep disturbances, with an emphasis on tailored, patient-centered care.
My patient focus includes individuals facing life transitions, stress management issues, and those who have experienced trauma and need supportive, trauma-informed care. I strive to build strong therapeutic alliances, empowering patients to build resilience and achieve lasting improvements in their mental health.
When it comes to goal setting, I take a collaborative and personalized approach that respects each patient's unique needs and values. My process involves working closely with patients to set goals that are realistic, meaningful, and aligned with their overall well-being.
