My professional mission is to help people live happier, healthier lives. We will come up with a plan together to improve all areas of your life. If you've always felt like you've had ADHD and its made you feel sad, anxious, scattered, or that you're just not living up to your full potential, I can help. I am a University hospital system trained PMHNP with over 20 years of healthcare experience who offers so much more in addition to prescribing medication. I also work with anxiety, depression, OCD, and PTSD.
My approach is looking at every area of your life to find as many ways as possible to help you feel and function better. I take a holistic approach to improving diet, sleep, and exercise along with medication and talk therapy. I work as a team with your therapist and other doctors.
Clients can expect to know what we are doing to improve all areas of their life and understand WHY we are doing what we do as part of their treatment plan. Click on my WEBSITE link to schedule a free 15-minute consult or full 1-hour assessment

Feel like life with ADHD (and Anxiety/ Depression) is a constant struggle with staying motivated, managing daily tasks, meeting deadlines, staying organized, and feeling like you are constantly "behind" due to difficulties with focus and prioritization? Is this leading to frustration, self-doubt, and strained relationships in both your work & personal life? I can help with more than just meds!
