As a board-certified Physician Assistant and psychiatric provider, I use a patient-centered approach that blends medication management, education, and preventive strategies. My clinical experience includes telemedicine psychiatry, and I have worked extensively with individuals facing mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, and ADHD. Through active listening and shared decision-making, I collaborate with my patients to create treatment plans that align with their unique needs and goals.
Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck—whether they are navigating depression, ADHD, or the unique challenges of adolescence. Some are seeking clarity and stability, while others want to feel more confident in managing day-to-day life. What they all share is a desire to be understood, to feel safe in expressing themselves, and t
I believe every patient is unique and deserves a safe, supportive space to be themselves. My role is to walk alongside you through both challenges and growth. Together, we’ll build strength, foster confidence, and find strategies to help you live a healthier, more balanced life. I’m here to support you on that journey.
