*I am accepting new clients - please click on green button above to connect for an appointment. I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner providing medication management and mental health support for individuals age 15 and up, including adults of all ages and older adults navigating cognitive or age-related changes. I specialize in treating anxiety disorders, panic attacks, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and Alzheimer’s-related cognitive disorders, including mild cognitive impairment. My approach is grounded in informed care: I believe patients deserve to understand their options — not just be handed a prescription. I take the time to explain diagnoses, discuss evidence-based treatments, and involve you in every decision along the way. Whether you're new to psychiatric care or looking for a fresh perspective, I’m here to walk with you through the process. I’m also experienced in supporting patients with co-occurring substance use concerns, particularly when substance use overlaps with conditions like depression, anxiety, or mood instability. While addiction is not my primary specialty, I understand the nuance of treating both together — and I work in collaboration with therapists and other providers to support a well-rounded care plan. I see each person as more than a diagnosis. My goal is to understand your unique story, lifestyle, challenges, and goals, and to develop a treatment plan that works not just clinically, but practically — something that fits your real life. I bring empathy, transparency, and clinical insight to every session, and I truly value the therapeutic relationship as part of the healing process.
