Can see NEW patients quickly!
My patients often struggle with mood, anxiety, personality, and/or psychotic disorders. I also treat ADHD and have a passion for treating trauma disorders. I see across the lifespan from age 4 and above. I offer medication management, as well as, offer education on holistic and natural approaches to treating mental health issues. With a degree as a family practice provider, as well, I ensure that there are no medical concerns to rule out.
I strive to offer a safe, supportive, compassionate, and non-judgmental atmosphere. Let me be in your corner and help you improve your mental health.
