Many people seek psychiatric care when anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, trauma, or persistent stress begin interfering with work, relationships, school, or daily life. Whether you're experiencing symptoms for the first time or have been struggling for years, my goal is to provide thoughtful, evidence-based care tailored to your individual needs.
As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, supportive psychotherapy, and pharmacogenomic testing when clinically appropriate. Pharmacogenomic testing can provide additional information about how your genetics may influence the way your body processes or responds to certain psychiatric medications. While it does not predict exactly which medication will work best, it can be a useful tool when selecting or adjusting treatment, particularly for individuals who have experienced medication side effects, limited benefit from previous treatments, or multiple medication trials.
I believe treatment works best when it is collaborative, personalized, and focused on your goals. Together, we’ll consider your symptoms, history, preferences, previous treatment experiences, and, when helpful, pharmacogenomic information to develop a treatment plan that feels both clinically sound and individualized to you.

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 South Bend
Finding psychiatrists in South Bend starts with understanding the type of care they provide. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and support through approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care. If you are looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD, read each psychiatrist’s listed specialties and bio to see whether their training matches what you want help with.
In a smaller city like South Bend, local psychiatry appointments may be more limited than in larger metro areas, so virtual care can help expand your options. 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, depending on the kind of support they want. As you compare options, look at appointment times, whether a psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Provider bios can also show how they describe their style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Psychiatric care in South Bend 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 are accepting new patients and match your preferences, and you can enter your insurance details to check whether a provider is in network for your plan. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, compare bios, and book directly when you are 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.
