My ideal client is someone who is open to the life-changing, transformative solutions that modern psychiatry and mental health can offer. My practice is virtual by design, meeting clients on their terms, during non-traditional hours when they have time to focus on themselves and their needs.
I am a Board Certified Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 6 years of community mental health experience. I am also an Emergency Room nurse with over 13 years experience. I have extensive experience in mental health both professionally and personally. I have a passion for children, adolescents, and first responders, emergency healthcare workers. I also have a deep passion for those suffering from depression, anxiety and suicidal thoughts.

My approach is patient-centered and collaborative, emphasizing shared decision-making, careful assessment, and individualized treatment planning.
Telehealth allows me to provide consistent, high-quality care while reducing common barriers such as travel, long wait times, and scheduling challenges. I take time to listen, explain treatment options clearly, and ensure patients feel informed and supported throughout their care.
I am committed to creating a respectful, judgment-free environment where patients feel comfortable discussing their concerns and goals. Whether you are new to mental health treatment or continuing care, I focus on improving symptoms, supporting long-term stability, and enhancing overall quality of life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Cincinnati
Finding the right psychiatrist in Cincinnati starts with understanding the type of care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists provide talk therapy. Medication management can support care for concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Both psychiatry and therapy can be valid starting points, and the right fit depends on your needs, preferences, and the care plan you discuss with a licensed clinician.
Cincinnati has a range of psychiatry options across neighborhoods like Over-the-Rhine, Hyde Park, Northside, and nearby areas. As you compare psychiatrists, consider appointment availability, whether you prefer in-person or virtual visits, and whether the psychiatrist’s listed specialties match what you want support with. Psychiatry appointments for medication management 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. Reading bios can help you understand each psychiatrist’s approach, communication style, and experience before you book.
Psychiatric care in Cincinnati 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 are accepting new patients and match your plan, location, and appointment preferences. You can review profiles, see estimated out-of-pocket costs after entering your insurance details, 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.
