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.

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 Gastonia

Finding psychiatrists in Gastonia starts with knowing what kind of care fits your needs. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and provide medication management. Psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can also prescribe and manage medication through their license. Therapists offer talk therapy and may work with you on concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, or life transitions. Some people start with a therapist, some start with a psychiatrist, and some work with both.

In a smaller city like Gastonia, local psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger North Carolina markets. Virtual appointments can expand your search while still giving you access to licensed psychiatrists who accept insurance. As you compare Gastonia psychiatrists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer in-person or virtual sessions, and whether their profile lists experience with your concerns. Medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Reading bios can help you understand each psychiatrist’s focus, style, and care structure before you book.

Psychiatric care in Gastonia can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients and match your insurance, location, and scheduling needs. You can enter your insurance details to see an estimated cost before booking, then review bios 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.
