Greetings! I am a board certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with over 12 years experience working with children, adolescents, adults and geriatrics in mental health. My approach is patient-centered and holistic, creating a partnership with each client. I advocate for patient empowerment through family and patient education, clear communication, and trust to help improve quality of life. I use an integrative approach which includes a combination of lifestyle, nutrition, and traditional medication recommendations, when necessary. I believe in treating the root cause and not just treating symptoms.

Rather than a perfect cure, I view medication as an amazing tool for symptom reduction. However, I understand starting a medication can be intimidating, especially when healthcare often feels rushed and impersonal. With that in mind, I prioritize 1) getting to know your story and how your symptoms are getting in the way, so I can make personalized recommendations 2) educating you on medications, so you can make educated decisions about your health. Together, we will identify the symptoms that are most distressing and discuss both pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical interventions to reduce the impact of your symptoms.

Welcome to Elevated Psychiatry, I'm glad you're here! As a dual board certified psychiatrist, it is my goal to not only give you a diagnosis and treatment plan, but also to put you at ease with psychiatry. To me, seeing a psychiatrist should be no different than seeing a Cardiologist for your heart, or a physical therapist for your broken leg. You just want a better quality of life! I enjoy treating adults with depression, anxiety, panic, post-traumatic stress disorder, bipolar disorder, and sleep problems. I am also trained in psychosomatics and am very comfortable treating medically complex patients and pregnant women.
