Like many, I live in and love the state of Colorado. Any chance I get I'm out exploring the outdoors. It provides balance in my personal and professional life.

As a dual-certified Family and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner I share my interests with clients I see.

When I was working full-time as a Family Nurse Practitioner I saw an unmet need in clients finding a balance in their physical and mental health. I decided to return to school to strengthen my knowledge in psychiatric mental health care.

For the past five years my focus has included seeing clients with substance dependence, MAT treatment, ADHD, Major Depressive Disorder, Bipolar Disorder and Schizophrenia. I especially enjoy the 1:1 experience via telehealth seeing clients in the comforts of their own home.

As a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner, I provide comprehensive psychiatric care grounded in evidence-based medicine while recognizing that healing often requires looking beyond symptoms alone. Together, we will explore not only what you are experiencing, but why. My goal is to help you find relief, and create meaningful, lasting change. I work with individuals facing complex concerns, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and substance use disorders. When appropriate, treatment may include medication management as part of a holistic approach to care. I believe lasting mental wellness is nurtured through the connection of mind, body, and daily life, incorporating tools such as mindfulness, meditation, affirmations, stress management, and other wellness practices.

Happy patient looking away

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 Thornton

Finding the right psychiatrist in Thornton, CO starts with understanding the type of care you need. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage ongoing medication plans. If you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or PTSD, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP) may be the right fit. Both can prescribe and adjust medication, and many are available for virtual appointments.

With providers spread across Thornton and the surrounding north Denver metro area — including Northglenn, Westminster, and Broomfield — narrowing your options can take time. Consider what matters most: a provider who specializes in a specific condition, someone who offers virtual visits, or a prescriber close to your neighborhood. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their background and approach.

Psychiatry sessions in Thornton can be costly without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a psychiatrist who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
