Accepting new clients! Looking for someone who provides non-rushed appointments or someone who’s not looking to just provide a quick prescription. I understand that mental health issues can be debilitating and that seeking mental health care can be challenging. I work closely with individuals who have anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, psychosis, OCD, PTSD, sleep issues, perinatal issues, and more. My passion is to help my patients achieve and improve their mental well-being. My goal is equitable and inclusive care for every individual I care for. You have taken the first step toward mental health and emotional wellness!
I am a dual-board certified family (FNP) and psychiatric (PMHNP) nurse practitioner. I have 15+ yrs of healthcare experience, working in oncology, pain, internal medicine, inpatient psych, and more. I use an evidenced-based medical and holistic approach to treatment.
Accepting new patients! If you’re looking for compassionate care you have come to the right place. Please send an email or call to get started on a path to a better you! After contact, please look out for a patient portal invitation from IntakeQ.
