I am a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). I provide care to children, adolescents, and adults, and my background in both family medicine and psychiatric mental health allows me to consider the important connection between physical and mental well-being.

I evaluate and manage a wide range of psychiatric and behavioral health concerns, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar and other mood disorders, trauma and PTSD, personality disorders, substance use and addiction, chronic stress, anger and aggression, sleep concerns, and emotional and behavioral difficulties. My medical background also informs my work with individuals whose mental health may be affected by chronic pain, medical conditions, medications, or other physical health concerns.

In addition to my medical and psychiatric training, I have specialized training and certifications in various evidence-based psychotherapy modalities. My therapeutic work may include individual therapy, trauma-focused therapy, family therapy, and parent-child therapeutic approaches. This combination of medical, psychiatric, and therapeutic training allows me to provide care that is individualized to the needs of each person and family.

After working 15+ years as an RN I am so excited to be making a difference as a provider of mental healthcare. Working from home allows me to offer better calendar flexibility to accommodate different schedules and to take care of my aging dogs at home!

I am compassionate and empathetic and here to help you reach your goals and become the best version of yourself.

During my training I worked primarily in community behavioral health. It is my goal to beneficially serve the community and provide support to those who need it while hoping to reduce barriers and stigmas that prevent people from getting the care they really need and deserve. Access is for everyone and I want to be a beacon of that message.

I have a certificate in Spanish for Healthcare Providers and as soon as I become a little more fluent I will be able to extend my services, accurately, into a second language.

Happy patient looking away

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 Fayetteville

Finding psychiatrists in Fayetteville starts with knowing what kind of mental health care you’re looking for. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists, counselors, and psychologists focus on talk therapy. If you’re looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or medication management, a prescriber may be part of your care. Some people start with therapy in Fayetteville, NC, some start with psychiatry, and some work with both.

In a smaller city like Fayetteville, local psychiatry options may be limited by appointment availability, office location, and insurance fit. Virtual appointments can expand your options across North Carolina while still giving you access to licensed psychiatric care. Medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. As you compare Fayetteville psychiatrists, review each profile for specialties, appointment times, visit format, and communication style so you can choose a psychiatrist who fits your needs and schedule.

Psychiatric care in Fayetteville can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce out-of-pocket costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, check whether they take your insurance plan, and see estimated session costs upfront. You can compare bios, choose virtual or in-person care when available, 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.

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