I am your partner in whole-person healing, and I am now accepting new patients. With nearly two decades of diverse nursing experience, my background spans psychiatry, oncology, palliative care, intensive care, hospice, and home health. This journey has given me a deep understanding of both physical and emotional health challenges.
I am known for building genuine connections with patients across all age groups. My approach is rooted in the belief that mental health is inseparable from physical well-being. I often view mental health symptoms not as disorders, but as signals of deeper imbalances—and I treat them with compassion and curiosity.
I am a down-to-earth, supportive, nonjudgmental, and open-minded Board Certified Psychiatric NP. I began my work in psychiatric care as a registered nurse treating patients in various hospital settings who were experiencing a mental health crisis. For a more rewarding 1-on-1 approach, I returned to grad school and earned a Masters, and chose to become certified as a Psychiatric NP. I am honored and fortunate to have the opportunity to manage medications for kids and adults with ADHD, depression, anxiety, PTSD, Bipolar, Panic, Sleep problems, and other ailments from a place of encouragement and respect and based on an ever growing library of peer reviewed scientific literature and medical treatment guidelines.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Salt Lake City
Finding the right psychiatrist in Salt Lake City starts with understanding what type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy. Medication management can support care for concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Some people start with a psychiatrist, some start with a therapist, and some work with both. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties, training, and care style match what you want support with.
Salt Lake City has psychiatrists across neighborhoods such as Downtown, Sugar House, and Holladay, along with virtual options that can expand your search beyond the nearest office. In-person visits may fit well if location, commute, or a physical office setting matters to you. Virtual appointments may work better if your schedule calls for more flexibility. Psychiatric medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Before booking, read each profile for appointment availability, whether a free phone consultation is offered, and how the psychiatrist describes their approach.
Psychiatric care in Salt Lake City 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, enter your insurance details, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can compare profiles, review 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.
