After four decades of psychiatric nursing, I transitioned to become a psychiatric nurse practitioner because I am passionate about providing mental health counseling to help people live their best lives. My experience encompasses working with a diverse range of patients facing both acute and chronic mental and behavioral health conditions. In my spare time, I enjoy various fiber arts, and spending time outdoors playing in the dirt. I am married to an amazing man who retired after a long career as a psychiatric social worker. Together, we have seven children and nine absolutely incredible grandchildren.

I am a dual certified Nurse Practitioner with over 21 years of nursing experience, who can help with the management of your mental and physical health needs. This includes medication management and other avenues to help you meet your goals.

I believe healthcare works best when patients feel heard and respected. I take time to listen to your concerns, explain things clearly, and involve you in every decision about your care. My goal is to create a comfortable environment where you feel confident asking questions and actively participating in your health.

I’m a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with more than 15 years of licensed nursing experience, most of that in mental health care. My background includes inpatient psychiatry, outpatient care, geriatric mental health, and caring for people through different stages of life, so I’ve seen how mental health concerns can show up in very real, everyday ways.

Over the years, I’ve learned that people don’t always have the words for what they’re experiencing. Sometimes they just know something feels off. Maybe it’s constant worry, low energy, feeling overwhelmed, having trouble sleeping, or simply not feeling like themselves anymore. That’s where I come in.

I help adults understand what may be going on and find practical, effective ways to address it. Medication may be part of the plan when appropriate, but we also look at the bigger picture and talk through the options together. My goal is to make mental health care feel clear, approachable, and personal, not confusing or overwhelming.

I hold a M.S,LPC, my experience and passion include working with children, teens and adults who are struggling at home and in school with concerns such as acting our behaviors, poor relationships and individuals suffering from anxiety, depression, anger, self-esteem and conduct disorder.

I am here to support you in that process.

I am a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C) and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with more than 13 years of healthcare experience. I earned my Family Nurse Practitioner degree from South University and completed my Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner training through Wilkes University.

My passion is helping people understand the "why" behind their symptoms, not just treating them. While I provide evidence-based psychiatric care, I also specialize in taking a deeper look at the factors that may be contributing to mental health concerns. My background in both primary care and psychiatry allows me to recognize the strong connection between the brain and body and approach care from a more comprehensive perspective.

I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, stress, and life transitions. In addition to traditional psychiatric treatment, I have a special interest in integrative and root-cause psychiatry. Together, we may explore how sleep, nutrition, gut health, hormones, inflammation, physical health, chronic stress, and lifestyle factors can influence emotional well-being and overall functioning.

I believe that meaningful change often happens when we move beyond symptom management alone and develop a deeper understanding of what may be driving those symptoms. My goal is to help clients gain insight into their health, identify opportunities for healing and growth, and create a personalized treatment plan that supports both symptom relief and long-term wellness.

I strive to provide compassionate, collaborative care in a supportive environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to take an active role in their mental health journey.

I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a background that spans mental health, geriatrics, home health, intensive care, and long-term rehabilitation.

With over a decade of hands-on nursing experience and recent advanced training in psychopharmacology and CBT, I bring both empathy and expertise to our work together. My clients can count on clear communication, collaborative care, and a deep commitment to helping them thrive.
