I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) driven by a deep commitment to mental health advocacy and patient-centered care. Taking a holistic approach to mental health, I integrate psychotherapy, pharmacologic management, and lifestyle interventions to support patients’ overall well-being. I specialize in diagnosing and treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and Oppositional Defiant Disorder for patients across the lifespan, aiming to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where patients feel heard and supported at all times. As a board-certified PMHNP with nearly a decade of emergency room expertise, I have developed a keen understanding and navigating of the complex mental health needs of patients across the lifespan. In the ER, I was drawn to patients whose needs extended beyond the physical, to those suffering in silence from emotional pain, trauma, anxiety, and depression. I witnessed how untreated mental illness affected every aspect of a person's life, how stigma often kept so many from seeking help, and how compassionate, skilled care could truly change lives. This experience led to my deep belief in collaborative care, continuous learning, clear documentation, and advocating for mental health equity. My dedication to ethical practice and timely follow-through makes me a reliable and trusted clinician in any setting. Outside the office, you’ll find me enjoying a wide range of hobbies, from baking and family time to traveling and outdoor activities.
