Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC
Accepting clients Last Updated 8 days ago

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma, or major life changes, you’re not alone. I provide a compassionate, supportive space where we work together to find balance using both medication and practical coping strategies. With over thirteen years of experience in mental health, critical care, and veteran-focused care, I help adults navigate depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and trauma, always honoring each person’s unique journey.

My approach to medication management is collaborative, trauma-informed, and individualized. I combine thoughtful medication support with coping skills and holistic strategies, taking time to understand your history, strengths, and goals. I work with you to build resilience, emotional balance, and a greater sense of control in daily life.

Reaching out for support can feel intimidating, but you don’t have to face it alone. When you’re ready, you can email me or book an appointment through the website link. I’m here to listen, support, and walk with you on your journey toward balance and well-being.
