Introduction

I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner with over 20 years of nursing experience and a focused practice in medication management for adults living with mental health and substance use concerns. I have worked as a psychiatric nurse practitioner for the past three years, building on a broad nursing background that informs a practical, grounded approach to care. My work is collaborative, direct, and trauma-informed. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, mood disorders, bipolar spectrum disorders, and addiction. I hold multiple certifications as a certified addiction specialist and trauma clinician, and I bring an addiction-focused lens to all aspects of psychiatric care. I believe medication should work for you—not against you. For some people, medication is a long-term tool; for others, it can be a bridge during particularly stressful life events while coping skills and stability are strengthened. My role is to help patients make informed, thoughtful decisions about treatment that align with their goals, values, and lived experience. I practice patient-centered care and see treatment as a partnership. I take the time to listen, explain options clearly, and adjust care based on how medications are actually affecting your day-to-day life. I work with adults ages 18 and older who are looking for straightforward, respectful psychiatric care rooted in both clinical experience and real-world practicality.
