Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, or stuck after trauma? You’re not alone—and support is available. I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who works with adults, with a focus on women’s mental health and military families. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to you. I was drawn to this work after seeing gaps in care for prenatal women and the stigma surrounding mental health in military communities. May is Mental Health Awareness Month! If you’re ready for support, I invite you to reach out.
I take a person-centered approach to care, which means I listen closely to your experiences, goals, and concerns to create a treatment plan tailored specifically to you. My focus is on building a collaborative, respectful relationship where you feel heard and supported.
I’m passionate about increasing access to mental health services and believe everyone deserves the opportunity to receive compassionate, high-quality care. Please note that controlled substances including stimulant medications and benzodiazepines, are not prescribed in this practice.
