I work with clients who have a history of trauma, or addiction, and I have worked extensively with the LGBTQIA+ community. I provide psychotropic medication management but work best with clients also open to alternative modalities in addition to medication. Because of my addiction background, I limit the use of controlled substances, such as benzos and stimulants, but I am aware that there is a place for these meds in some treatment plans.

I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, insomnia, and bipolar illness. I do not think the online platform is appropriate for individuals with a psychotic disorder but I do have this experience and I am willing to work with someone short-term until they can get in with another provider.

I have flexibility in my schedule that allows me to offer evenings, weekends, and mornings.
