I am dedicated to creating a compassionate and holistic approach to mental health care, recognizing the intricate connection between mind, body, and spirit. I have a passion for working with adults primarily with mood disorders but also full-spectrum of psychiatric issues as well as issues that do not fit into diagnostic categories. In my work with clients, I take on a non-pathologizing approach to mental health and try to help you discover your strengths as well as help you make sense of what lead to the development of symptoms.
I now offer clients medications such as compounded semaglutide to help with medication-induced weight gain or obesity.
Please note that I do not prescribe controlled substances due to being a telemedicine only provider.
