Welcome: I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to improving mental health outcomes. I provide compassionate and comprehensive care, specializing in evidence-based treatments for depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and other mental health conditions.
I graduated from The Ohio State University with my DNP in 2020 focusing on efficient pathways to implement depression screening post-stroke to identify mental health needs. After working a couple years as a nurse practitioner within neurosurgery, I transitioned from Ohio to Florida and pursued my PMHNP certification from Florida State University. Over the past 5 years I have been treating psychiatric needs in LTC around Florida. I am currently working to expand into independent practice and work personally with individuals creating a therapeutic relationship and enhancing their mental health.
As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I have extensive experience treating adults in both outpatient and residential settings and provide comprehensive evaluation and treatment for conditions including Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, Bipolar Disorder, ADHD, and other mental health concerns. My practice is built on a collaborative, patient-centered approach. Together, we will develop an individualized treatment plan focused on resilience, personal growth, and lasting wellness. I believe in responsible, evidence-based prescribing and thoughtful diagnostic evaluation. ADHD treatment begins with a comprehensive assessment, and when appropriate, psychological testing or supporting documentation may be required to confirm the diagnosis before stimulant medication is considered. Additionally, my practice does not routinely prescribe benzodiazepines for the treatment of anxiety or insomnia. Instead, I focus on treatments that have strong evidence for long-term effectiveness and safety, including psychotherapy referrals, lifestyle interventions, and non-benzodiazepine medication options when appropriate. My goal is to partner with individuals who are committed to improving their mental health and actively participating in their treatment journey. Whether you are seeking relief from symptoms, greater emotional resilience, or a path toward lasting recovery, I look forward to working with you. If you are ready to invest in your mental wellness, I invite you to schedule a virtual consultation. Together, we can create a personalized treatment plan that supports your goals and helps you build a healthier, more fulfilling life.

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 Melbourne
Finding psychiatrists in Melbourne starts with knowing which type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners may also diagnose and prescribe. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work alongside a prescriber. If you’re looking for support with anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or medication management, look for a psychiatrist whose listed training and specialties match what you want to address.
In a smaller city like Melbourne, local psychiatry appointments may be more limited than in larger Florida metro areas, so virtual care can expand your options. You may want an in-person office near Downtown Melbourne, Eau Gallie, Suntree, or another nearby area, or you may prefer the flexibility of virtual appointments from home. Psychiatric medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. As you compare options, review availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and what their bio says about communication style, appointment structure, and areas of focus.
Psychiatric care in Melbourne 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 find psychiatrists who match your preferences, take your plan, and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details, see estimated out-of-pocket costs, review bios, and book a psychiatry appointment 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.
