I am a doctorally-trained child and adolescent psychiatric nurse practitioner and provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and evidence-based medication management for children, adolescents, and young adults with various behavioral/mental health needs.
I believe in treating the whole individual (mental health + physical health) and value an innovative, trauma-informed, and multidisciplinary approach that offers diverse perspectives and delivers integrative care to my patients and their families.
My areas of expertise in practice include mood disorders, PTSD, neurodevelopmental disorders, neuroimmunological disorders, and LGBTQIA+ health. In addition, I treat many other psychiatric concerns. I take the time to offer thoughtful 90-minute comprehensive initial evaluations and 60-minute follow-up visits. I offer pharmacogenomic testing.
