I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing evidence-based psychiatric care through secure telehealth services. I am licensed in Ohio and board certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), and I work with adolescents and adults seeking accessible, professional mental health care.

With over 20 years of healthcare experience, I specialize in psychiatric medication management and the treatment of anxiety, depression, ADHD (treatment with non-stimulant medication), bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, mood disorders and related conditions.

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.

I am a dual-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner with a clinical background that spans psychiatry, addiction medicine, primary care, detoxification and recovery services, chronic pain management, and complex medical care. That range of experience has shaped the way I practice today: mental health concerns are rarely viewed in isolation, because emotional well-being, physical health, sleep, stress, relationships, medications, past experiences, and everyday life often influence one another.

I provide individualized psychiatric care for adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders, trauma-related concerns, substance use disorders, sleep difficulties, mood changes, and other behavioral health concerns. Care may include comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, medication management, psychotherapy, or a combination of approaches based on your symptoms, history, preferences, and treatment goals.

My background includes years of caring for patients with overlapping psychiatric, medical, and substance-related conditions in outpatient, telehealth, detox, and residential treatment settings. I have experience managing psychotropic medications, providing medication-assisted treatment for substance use disorders, evaluating safety and psychiatric risk, supporting patients through withdrawal and recovery, and collaborating with therapists, physicians, case managers, and other members of the treatment team when coordinated care is needed.

Before focusing more extensively on behavioral health, I spent years in chronic pain care, where I evaluated complex medical histories, reviewed diagnostic testing, managed chronic conditions, and worked closely with specialists and primary care teams. That experience continues to inform my psychiatric practice.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I work with teens (12+) and adults who want down-to-earth, practical help for worry, low mood, poor sleep, and low energy. People come to me when anxiety, panic, persistent sadness, or sleep problems that are starting to get in the way of daily life, work, school, or relationships — or when past treatments didn’t help enough or caused unwanted side effects. I treat anxiety (including panic and OCD), depression, bipolar mood instability, psychosis when medication management is needed, insomnia, and struggles with motivation and energy.

Welcome. If you are an adult or adolescent in Ohio feeling overwhelmed or stuck, I provide a safe, collaborative space for your mental health journey. I see you as a whole person, not a list of symptoms. Typically, individuals seek psychiatric care when coping mechanisms are no longer enough for persistent anxiety, depression, stress, or mood disorders. Together, we start with a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation to understand your history and goals. If chosen, medication management is introduced thoughtfully at conservative doses and paired with supportive tools to help you build real-world skills and truly thrive.

My path to psychiatry began with a simple observation: mental health needs are everywhere, yet not enough people have access to care. After five years as a family nurse practitioner, I made the move to psychiatric care because I wanted to be part of the solution. I bring a holistic perspective to every session, drawing on years of primary care experience to understand how physical and mental health are connected in each person. I am board certified and see patients virtually in Ohio. If you are navigating anxiety, depression, or PTSD, I am here to work alongside you toward real, lasting change.

Over nine years ago my life changed. I lost a son to suicide due to unaddressed mental health needs. A system that was overwhelmed failed him. I returned to school to help close that gap and want to work with others to start their journey towards mental wellness.

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 Mental Health Psychiatrist in Cleveland, OH

Finding the right psychiatrists in Cleveland starts with understanding the type of care that fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists provide talk therapy. Both can be valid starting points depending on what you want help with. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach before booking.

Cleveland offers a range of psychiatry options across nearby areas like Tremont, Lakewood, and surrounding communities, with both in-person and virtual appointments available. Medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, so scheduling, appointment format, and availability can play a large role in fit. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Reading profiles can help you understand each psychiatrist’s communication style, clinical focus, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Psychiatric care in Cleveland can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway makes the search easier by helping you find psychiatrists who match your needs, take your insurance, and are accepting new patients, so you can review profiles, compare availability, 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.
