With over 20 years in healthcare and working as a Family Nurse Practitioner, the desire to treat patients better as a “whole” combined with the COVID pandemic of 2020 nearly caused me to stop providing care entirely. Essentially, I was fed up with the medical care being offered to many. Instead of walking away from patient care, I chose a different path. My focus shifted to treating the mental health of the patients & families I have compassionately taken care of in the past,
I bring a background as an educator, a parent, and a health and wellness coach.
With over 36 years in behavioral health, I've worked across inpatient, outpatient, corrections, education, and management settings — with children, adolescents, adults, and individuals navigating substance use and serious mental illness. But what drives me isn't my resume; it's this: mental illness is a bully, and no one deserves to be bullied. Nobody asked for it, and there is real courage in asking for help. I want to be a rock upon which mental illness breaks — helping people feel heard, seen, and able to enjoy life again. When I'm not working, you'll find me hiking, backpacking, or spending time with my dogs.
I am currently accepting patients and next day appointments are available. I provide evidence-based psychiatric medication management for ADHD, anxiety, depression, and related concerns for adults, adolescents, and children (age 6+). Many of my patients are students, professionals, and parents seeking practical solutions that improve concentration, mood, and daily functioning. My approach is collaborative, structured, and goal-oriented. I also provide objective psychological testing (Pearson) for ADHD, mood, autism, and personality concerns including Connors, Brown, BASC, ASRS, Vineland, and Millon.
With over 12 years of psychiatric experience across inpatient and outpatient settings, I aim to provide care that is both clinically thorough and practical for real life. My goal is to help you experience meaningful symptom improvement, better daily functioning, and greater confidence in managing your mental health.
If mutually decided to prescribe controlled substances such as stimulants, then a controlled substances agreement will need to be signed.

Find the right psychiatrist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Tempe
Finding the right psychiatrist in Tempe starts with knowing what kind of care you need. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage psychiatric care over time. Psychiatric nurse practitioners can also diagnose conditions and prescribe medication. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work with you alongside a prescriber. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties and training match what you want to address.
Tempe has local options near areas like Mill Avenue, Arizona State University, and South Tempe, with more psychiatry choices across the Phoenix metro area. Virtual appointments can also expand your search if office location, commute, or schedule matters. Psychiatric visits for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. As you compare options, review appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and each profile’s bio to understand their care style, session structure, and clinical focus.
Psychiatric care in Tempe can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients with your plan, verify your benefits, and see estimated costs upfront. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
