As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I approach care holistically rather than from an illness-based approach. I take time to listen to you to begin to know the whole, unique person you are. My goal is to help you find strengths you already have (yes, you do!) to help you grow through your problems, with or without the help of medication.
Asking for help with a psychiatric or mental health problem takes a lot of strength and courage, I know. But asking for help is the first step in healing. Whatever problems you have, know there is a solution. Let's talk about finding ways for you to grow through your problems. There is help for you and there is a solution for your problems.
