I am a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with years of experience treating teen/adolescents and their families. I focus on treating the whole individual with psychotherapy and medication when appropriate, and after careful assessment. The driving force behind my practice is to create a nurturing environment where kids can grow into healthy adults with learned coping skills and a better understanding of their own identity.
My goal is to offer an array of evidence based treatments to best cater specifically to each individual’s needs.
It is my absolute passion to see families become healthy and strengthened through this process!
