I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing and a diverse nursing background that has shaped my compassionate, whole-person approach to mental health care. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, sleep difficulties, and other mental health challenges.

I believe mental health care should feel collaborative, supportive, and free of judgment. I take the time to understand each person beyond their symptoms, including their experiences, relationships, stressors, strengths, and goals. My goal is to create a comfortable space where clients feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their treatment.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who works with children, adolescents, and adults. I understand that reaching out for psychiatric care can feel overwhelming—especially when you’ve been struggling for a while, have tried treatments that haven’t worked, or are trying to find the right help for your child.

I work with individuals experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, mood disorders, trauma-related symptoms, autism/neurodivergence, sleep difficulties, and emotional or behavioral dysregulation. My goal is to provide a space where you feel heard, understood, and comfortable being honest about what is and isn’t working.

While I work with all ages across the lifespan, I especially enjoy working with children and adolescents and patterning with parents who are trying to understand complex behavioral, emotional, or attention concerns.

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 Chapel Hill

Finding the right psychiatrist in Chapel Hill starts with knowing which kind of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication. Therapists provide talk therapy and do not prescribe medication. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, a psychiatrist may be a fit. You can also look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match what you want to address.

Chapel Hill has a smaller local market than nearby metro areas, so virtual psychiatry can expand your options beyond offices near Carrboro, downtown Chapel Hill, or the University area. Medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, which can make scheduling preferences especially important. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people choose to work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Reading psychiatrist bios can help you compare availability, session format, specialties, and communication style before you book.

Psychiatric care in Chapel Hill 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 your first appointment. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and accept your plan. You can add your insurance details, review estimated costs upfront, browse 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.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
