I am passionate about brain and mental health. Over the years, I have built the belief that strong mental health is foundational to a successful, fulfilling life. However, I have also found there are no cookie-cutter solutions given the complexities of the human experience, thus inspiring a passion for a thorough, thoughtful, and individualized approach to brain and mental health. I earned a bachelor degree in nursing and in psychology, and a master's degree in psychiatric mental health.
I specialize in Anxiety, ADHD, Depression, PTSD, Panic disorder and mood disorders. I also offer ADHD testing for children and adults online and in-person. I offer both medication management and therapy.

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 Psychiatrist in Meridian
Finding the right psychiatrist in Meridian starts with understanding what kind of mental health care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy. Medication management often includes reviewing symptoms, discussing how care is going, and making updates when clinically appropriate. People often look for psychiatrists for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or other concerns. Reading each psychiatrist’s listed specialties and approach can help you find someone whose training matches your needs.
Meridian has a smaller local psychiatrist market than nearby Boise, so virtual appointments can give you more options while keeping care accessible from home. Psychiatric appointments for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare options, look at appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Provider bios can also show communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in a first appointment.
Psychiatric care in Meridian 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 compare psychiatrists who take insurance, verify your benefits, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. Every psychiatrist listed is accepting new patients, and Headway helps verify which options match your plan, making it easier to browse profiles, compare fit, 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.
