I treat a range of conditions including mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. My preferred treatment approach is person-centered and considers various factors such as nutrition, movement, and lifestyle habits. Medications are one valuable tool in addressing mental health concerns. However, I also believe in partnering with clients to integrate therapeutic approaches to care. My preferred therapeutic approaches integrate CBT, Bowen Family Systems Theory, play therapy, and solution focused therapy.
I have over 5 years of inpatient experience as a mental health nurse working at University of North Carolina Medical Center in crisis-stabilization, perinatal mood disorders, and geropsychiatry. In 2023, I graduated with my Masters degree as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. My experience ranges from treating adult through geriatric populations. I also have over two years of experience as a provider treating individuals in geriatric mental health.
