I’m a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, and my path into this work comes from a genuine desire to help people feel understood and supported during some of their hardest moments.

I'm a psychiatric nurse practitioner who has worked across outpatient psychiatry, private practice, and long-term care. That range has shaped how I approach mental health: I believe every person's situation is unique, and I don't come in with a preset agenda. You can expect honesty, transparency, and a genuine commitment to understanding what you need. I'm building this practice on integrity, and my goal is to make sure you always know what's happening with your care and why.

At Shore House Wellness Collective, I help individuals better understand their mental health and take meaningful steps toward feeling more like themselves again. I work with patients experiencing anxiety, depression, mood changes, trauma, life transitions, substance use and recovery, stress, sleep concerns, or simply a sense that something isn’t quite right.
My approach centers on comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, medication prescribing and ongoing medication management, combined with brief, evidence-based psychotherapy when appropriate. I believe medication should be individualized—not simply prescribed—and that patients deserve to understand their treatment options, potential benefits, and what to expect. I work collaboratively with you to identify what is working, what isn’t, and when adjustments may be needed.
Psychotherapy is often brief, focused, and goal-oriented rather than open-ended. Depending on your needs, sessions may incorporate supportive therapy, coping strategies, psychoeducation, behavioral approaches, stress management, and practical tools designed to help you make progress between visits.

Frequently asked questions
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 Wilmington
Searching for psychiatrists in Wilmington starts with understanding the type of care you want. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage ongoing medication care. Therapists provide talk therapy and usually do not prescribe medication. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or medication management, either psychiatry, therapy, or both may fit your needs. Review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and care focus to see whether their background matches what you want help with.
Wilmington has local mental health care options across neighborhoods like Trolley Square, Riverside, and Eastside, but appointment supply can vary in a smaller city. Virtual psychiatry can expand your choices beyond nearby offices while keeping care tied to your schedule. Medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare profiles, look for appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. A bio can also show how they communicate, what conditions they often support, and what to expect in the first visit.
Psychiatric care in Wilmington 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 booking. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who match your needs, with many accepting insurance and all listed providers accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details, see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, compare bios, 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.
