Are you feeling overwhelmed or constantly worried about your life. I am here to collaborate with you to establish an individualized plan of care that will help you restore and maintain your mental fitness. I am a Spartanburg native, and I received my graduate education from Clemson University, the University of South Carolina and a Doctor of Nursing Practice from Anderson University. I have been a nurse practitioner for over a decade, and I hold dual board certifications in geriatrics and psychiatric mental healthcare. I have a diverse clinical background that includes gerontology, neurology, and psychiatry.
Mental fitness is an integrated approach that encompasses the mind, body, and spirit, with a self-awareness of how you feel and think. Different strategies work for different individuals. It is important to find what works for you and prioritize your self-care.
“You are not your illness. You have an individual story to tell. You have a name, a history, a personality. Staying yourself is part of the battle.” ― Julian Seifter
