I am licensed in NC and VA and run an all virtual practice so I can see clients who live in these two states. I will very soon take BCBS in NC only, I take United, Aetna, Optum, Oscar, Cigna, Oxford in both states and I also take cash pay and sliding scale patients in both states. I do not take Medicaid or Medicare currently. I enjoy helping clients improve their day-to-day functioning with medications, brief counseling, psycho-education and holistic solutions. I have 20 years of sole, successful, clinical experience treating a diverse patient population. I look forward to helping as best I can.

My graduate training happened when I was on active duty as an Army Nurse so I have had a lot of training in PTSD, anxiety disorders, depression, insomnia, mood disorders and substance use disorders.
My easy going personality and my 20 years of clinical experience as a psychiatric NP helps put patients at ease and we are able to build a working relationship quickly and effectively. I really enjoy sharing the clinical knowledge I have gained in my practice with patients as we both witness the improvement in their mood, function and overall wellbeing.
