Im a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) who values authenticity, compassion, and support in the healing process. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University and have worked in both inpatient and outpatient behavioral health settings, helping individuals manage anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions.
I believe mental health care should feel human — not clinical or intimidating. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, supported, and empowered as we work together to find what wellness means for you.
Hi there! I'm glad you found your way here.
If you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or just plain exhausted, you are not alone. A lot of the
people I work with describe a similar experience: on the surface, life looks manageable, but
internally, it is a different story. Thoughts that won't quiet down, energy that's hard to find, or
stress from past experiences that never quite resolved themselves.
You don't have to keep carrying that on your own.
I work with patients navigating a wide range of mental challenges, from anxiety, ADHD,
depression, and mood disorders to trauma, life transitions, burnout, and beyond. My goal is
straightforward: to help you feel more like yourself again, and more in control of your day-to-day life.

Frequently asked questions


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 Psychiatrist in Nacogdoches
Finding psychiatrists in Nacogdoches starts with understanding which type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy and ongoing support. If you are looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, a prescriber may be a useful place to start. Some people also work with both a therapist and a prescriber, depending on the type of support they want.
In a smaller city like Nacogdoches, local psychiatry appointment options may be more limited than in larger Texas markets. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while still letting you search by availability, specialty, and insurance. Psychiatric medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Before booking, read each psychiatrist’s bio to understand their specialties, care style, appointment format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Psychiatric care in Nacogdoches 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 compare psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients, verify your insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can review bios, choose virtual or in-person care when available, 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.
