Premera Blue Cross Psychiatrists in Shelton, WA
As a doctorate-prepared PMHNP-BC in a rural, underserved, small community, I'm passionate about providing psychiatric diagnostic interviews, medication management services, and serving my community. I understand the importance of treating people holistically to maintain a balanced state so wellness is achieved. I focus on a “whole patient” approach and “patient-centered care” for the best outcomes. A person must balance sleep hygiene, diet, and exercise to live their best life. I strive to help patients reach their best potential psychiatrically after other options have been exhausted through medication management and education.

Do you ever wonder, “Why does everything feel so hard when it seems easy for everyone else?”

Whether it’s ADHD, Autism, anxiety, or just the exhaustion of trying to keep up, it’s not because you’re lazy or broken. Your brain simply works differently and that’s okay.
