If you are feeling mentally exhausted, suffer from brain fog, struggling to focus, or finding it difficult to keep up with task and demands of work, school, relationships, parenting, or everyday responsibilities, you are not alone.
Many women and men come to treatment during seasons of transition, whether they are navigating career changes, academic pressures, relationship or marriage concerns, divorce, parenting stress, grief, health challenges, or adjusting to a new stage of life.
Others may be struggling with executive dysfunction, ADHD, focus and concentration difficulties, organization, organize thoughts, motivation, manage time, or regulate emotions and feeling overwhelmed by the demands of everyday life.
Many of my clients experience anxiety, depression, seasonal depression and feel disconnected from the life they want to create, and my goal is to help you "Grow and Glow" and together create the best life possible.
Together, we will look at the whole picture—not just symptoms, but also your relationships, strengths, stressors, and goals—to create a plan that fits your unique needs.As an independent provider, I believe meaningful mental health care begins with feeling heard. My goal is for every patient to feel seen, understood, and supported.
I believe hope, guidance, and the right support can make a powerful difference. My role is to walk alongside you, help clear the path forward, provide practical tools, and empower you to move toward the life you want to create. You don't have to do it alone.
I believe the most effective care comes from a strong, collaborative partnership. I approach each person as more than a diagnosis, and I value honesty, accountability, and mutual respect in the work we do together. Change is possible—I’ve seen it firsthand—and I’m here to support you in becoming the version of yourself you want to be. My background includes both a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Nursing from Walsh University, and I bring that clinical foundation into thoughtful, individualized care.
I specialize in wellness approaches using vitamins and minerals and traditional Western medicine options. I'm goal-oriented and want clients who like to develop a relationship with their provider. I like to make appointments about your goals and desires. I will meet everyone on their path, and we will work toward whatever makes you feel comfortable. I offer flexible scheduling with day, evening, and weekend appointments. My clients report that they love the flexibility and their growth.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Westlake, OH
Finding psychiatrists in Westlake starts with understanding the type of care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and support with coping skills, relationships, and behavior patterns. If you are looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach to see whether their experience matches what you want to address.
In a smaller market like Westlake, local psychiatrist availability may be more limited than in nearby Cleveland. Virtual appointments can expand your options while keeping care accessible from home. Psychiatric medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also provide therapy. Some people choose to work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, read psychiatrist bios for details on availability, appointment format, communication style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Westlake can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage 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, match your preferences, and take your insurance plan. You can enter your insurance details, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, review profiles, 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.
