I am a board-certified psychiatric and medical provider with over a decade of experience caring for adolescents and adults across diverse clinical settings. My background spans outpatient psychiatry, primary care, and integrated medical-mental health treatment, which allows me to take a whole-person approach to care rather than treating symptoms in isolation. I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, trauma-related conditions, mood disorders, and sleep concerns. I also manage common medical conditions that often overlap with mental health, such as hypertension, metabolic concerns, and medication-related side effects. My care is evidence-based, thoughtful, and collaborative, with an emphasis on clear diagnosis, realistic treatment plans, and measurable improvement. I believe strongly in partnering with patients to understand their goals, values, and lived experiences. Treatment plans are individualized and aimed at improving outcomes.

As a dedicated and compassionate Nurse Practitioner, I am committed to providing holistic healthcare that addresses both the physical and mental well-being of my patients. With a background in primary care and specialized training in mental health, I strive to offer comprehensive and integrated care that promotes overall health and quality of life. I am passionate about fostering a collaborative and empathetic relationship with my patients. I believe in active listening and open communication to truly understand each individual's unique needs and concerns. By combining my primary care and mental health knowledge, I am dedicated to offering personalized treatment plans that address both the physical and emotional aspects of health. Beyond direct patient care, I am a strong advocate for mental health awareness and reducing the stigma surrounding mental health conditions. Please feel free to reach out to schedule an appointment or discuss any healthcare concerns.

I integrate primary care with complimentary services. Primary care services include screening, diagnosis, and treatment, focusing on early detection and prevention. I also order tests, prescribe medications, and give referrals to specialists. In addition to standard medical treatments, I offer science and evidence-based complementary applications such as mindfulness, plant medicine, acupressure, and meditation. These services are included in regular visits and offered as independent modalities.
