I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over eight years of nursing experiencing, including more than six years in the intensive care. My experience caring for patients during some of the most difficult moments of their lives, along with my own journey with therapy and mental health treatment, inspired me to pursue a career in psychiatry.
I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, stress, and life transitions. I also enjoy helping children with anxiety, depression, and ADHD. My goal is to create a compassionate, judgment-free space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes.
If you’re feeling weighed down by anxiety, depression, trauma, mood shifts, or ADHD symptoms and wondering whether medication could help, you’re not alone. I work with teens and adults navigating mood and anxiety disorders, PTSD, OCD, ADHD, and stress-related challenges.
Clients often tell me they appreciate my mix of medical expertise and genuine compassion. With a background in both psychiatry and intensive medical care, I understand how closely the mind and body are connected. My goal is to make care accessible and consistent, which is why I offer flexible scheduling and telehealth appointments.
In our first sessions, we’ll review your history, clarify your symptoms, and determine whether medication is appropriate. If it is, we’ll build a treatment plan that feels realistic, evidence-based, and aligned with your goals and overall health.
Outside of work, I find balance through yoga, comedy, time with my dog, and enjoying sunny days — reminders that healing comes from both steady progress and moments of joy.
Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood changes, trauma, or feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges? When mental health symptoms begin affecting your work, relationships, sleep, or daily functioning, it can feel difficult to know where to turn. You don't have to face it alone.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 15 years of healthcare experience providing compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for adults throughout Washington. I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, and other mental health conditions through personalized medication management and supportive therapy.
My approach is collaborative, holistic, and centered on your unique needs and goals. I take the time to understand your experiences, concerns, and strengths so we can develop a treatment plan that helps you feel more balanced, focused, and in control of your life. I believe healing begins when people feel heard, respected, and supported.
I currently offer convenient telehealth appointments and strive to provide a welcoming, judgment-free environment where you can feel comfortable discussing your concerns. Taking the first step toward better mental health can be challenging, but support is available. If you're ready to explore treatment options, I invite you to reach out to schedule a consultation.
Finding the right provider can make all the difference. I’m a board- certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with a background caring for both children and adults, including experience in pediatrics, adult ICU care, and outpatient psychiatry. I work with clients across the lifespan and have a special interest in ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and other mental health concerns. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and comfortable being yourself. I value genuine connection and believe effective care starts with understanding the whole person, not just a diagnosis.
You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or frustrated with patterns that don’t seem to change. Maybe anxiety is constant, depression has drained your motivation, ADHD is affecting your focus, or past trauma continues to resurface. You want clarity, stability, and relief — not just for today, but long term. You want to feel like yourself again, function better at school or work, and regain control of your emotions instead of feeling controlled by them.
Are you navigating the complexities of your mental and physical health simultaneously? Dealing with anxiety, depression, or ADHD can be overwhelming, especially when managing chronic pain, insomnia, or another chronic illness. I am a dual-certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC) specializing in whole-person, integrated care. I focus on treating the full spectrum of you—not just your symptoms—to help you achieve comprehensive wellness and stability
You’re the one who usually has everything under control, but lately, the "strong" version of you feels like a mask that’s getting too heavy to wear. Whether you’re a mother wondering why you feel detached from the life you worked so hard to build, or a parent exhausted by the cycle of ADHD-related challenges—you don’t have to carry this alone.
I provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can stop surviving and start thriving. My approach is patient-centered, trauma-informed, and evidence-based, tailored to move you toward a life where you feel present, connected, and capable.
I specialize in:
- Perinatal & Maternal Mental Health: Navigating the "new reality" of motherhood.
- High-Achieving Professionals: Managing burnout, perfectionism, and "mental load."
- Neurodiversity-Affirming Care: Supporting parents and children navigating ADHD and behavioral hurdles.

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 Overland Park
Finding psychiatrists in Overland Park starts with understanding which kind of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy and support. Psychiatric care often includes medication management, where a prescriber reviews symptoms, response to care, and any concerns over time. People often look for psychiatrists for anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and other mental health concerns.
In Overland Park and the greater Kansas City area, your search may include both local offices and virtual appointments. In-person care may fit well if you prefer a nearby office, while virtual visits can make scheduling easier across work, school, or family commitments. Psychiatric appointments, especially medication management visits, 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. Before booking, review each psychiatrist’s bio for specialties, appointment availability, care approach, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Overland Park 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 care begins. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who match your needs, are accepting new patients, and can be checked against your insurance plan. You can review bios, compare virtual and in-person options, see estimated costs upfront, 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.
