I'm a board-certified psychiatrist with over 20 years of experience in both general psychiatry and addiction medicine. My background spans a wide range of mental health conditions — from anxiety and depression to bipolar disorder and substance use — and I bring a deeply holistic perspective to every patient I work with. I offer telehealth care with flexible scheduling, including early morning appointments starting at 7:30am for those who need care before their workday begins.
Welcome! I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to helping individuals find healing through a well-rounded approach to mental wellness. True healing comes from caring for the whole person: mind, body, and spirit. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free space where you can be listened to, valued, and empowered to take an active role in your mental health journey. I have years of experience caring for individuals with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, psychosis, substance use disorders, and other complex mental health conditions. Mental health is more than managing symptoms. Mental well-being is closely connected to physical health, relationships, purpose, and daily habits. Together, we will explore how these areas influence your overall wellness and develop a treatment plan that supports lasting growth. This may include medication management when appropriate, education, supportive therapy, healthy lifestyle strategies, stress management, sleep optimization, and building practical coping skills that fit your 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 Therapist in Danville
Finding psychiatrists in Danville starts with understanding what kind of care fits your needs. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication as part of ongoing mental health care. Psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can also diagnose and prescribe through their licenses. Therapists provide talk therapy and usually do not prescribe medication. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach to see whether their background matches what you are looking for.
In a smaller city like Danville, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Virginia markets. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while still letting you work with a licensed psychiatrist who fits your schedule and care needs. Psychiatry visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, especially when the focus is medication management. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, read each profile to compare appointment availability, session format, areas of focus, and communication style.
Psychiatric care in Danville 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 your first appointment. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, verify your insurance, view estimated costs upfront, and book directly when you are ready. This makes it easier to compare psychiatrists in Danville by clinical fit, availability, and coverage.
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.
