I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with seven years of experience in psychiatry and medication management. I've had the privilege of helping individuals of all ages and backgrounds overcome a variety of mental health challenges, from depression and anxiety to more complex conditions like bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Throughout my career, I've become increasingly passionate about the importance of accessible mental health care. I firmly believe that everyone should have access to high-quality mental health services, regardless of their age, socioeconomic status, or lifestyle. Unfortunately, many barriers to care still prevent people from getting the help they need, such as long wait times, limited insurance coverage, and stigmatization. That's why I've made it my mission to provide compassionate, evidence-based care that is accessible and inclusive to all. Whether you're struggling with a mental health issue for the first time or have been living with a condition for years, I'm here to help. My approach is collaborative and tailored to each individual's unique needs and goals, and I always strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where my clients can feel heard and supported. Thank you for taking the time to read about me. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation, please don't hesitate to reach out!

I value connection and find witnessing my clients’ resilience and growth deeply rewarding. I have worked with adolescents and adults navigating a variety of concerns, including eating disorders, domestic violence, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. No matter the concern, my goal is to create a warm, non-judgmental space where clients feel empowered to share their stories and create meaningful change.
