Yes! I am accepting new clients! I provide assessments and medication management if appropriate for ALL ages. I provide treatment for conditions such as anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, and I have a special interest in OCD and pediatric mental health. I value collaborating with a client's current PCP, therapist, and consulting with specialists as needed. I also hold a certification in child psychology and development and I’m excited to now offer evaluations for ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder using The ADOS-2 (sometimes referred to as the gold standard for autism evaluations), Vineland 3, and other assessment tools.

Choosing treatment for mental health is tough - I'm here to help guide you step by step in the process. With 8 years of experience in the psychiatric nursing field prior to becoming a nurse practitioner, I gained tons of meaningful experiences helping treat mental illnesses across the entire lifespan, from toddlers to the elderly. I am here to treat each person holistically, and create a treatment plan that will fit THEM; telling someone to do something they don't agree with never works, right?
