I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner with a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree and nearly a decade of experience working in community mental health. I work primarily with adults and older adolescents experiencing mood or psychotic disorders, anxiety, PTSD, and other complex or overlapping symptoms. I have a particular interest in diagnostic clarification and mood disorders, including helping people who are unsure whether a previous diagnosis fully explains what they are experiencing.
I am also a veteran of 27 years of service in the Army and Navy Reserve. That experience gives me an appreciation for military culture, service-related stress, and the challenges service members and veterans may face when seeking mental health care. I welcome both military-connected and civilian clients.
I believe the best mental health care begins with listening. I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric evaluations and medication management for children, adolescents, and adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, behavioral concerns, and life stressors. My approach is collaborative and personalized, taking time to understand the whole person, not just their symptoms.
Together, we'll develop a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs, which may include medication management, education, lifestyle recommendations, and brief supportive therapy during medication management visits. While I incorporate therapeutic techniques into our appointments to help you build coping skills and achieve your treatment goals, I do not provide ongoing individual psychotherapy. If more intensive or regular therapy would benefit you, I'm happy to coordinate care with your therapist or help connect you with one.
My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful, lasting progress.

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 Mountlake Terrace
Finding psychiatrists in Mountlake Terrace starts with knowing which type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists provide talk therapy. Medication management often includes reviewing symptoms, discussing side effects, and making adjustments with your prescriber when appropriate. People often look for psychiatric care for concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties and clinical background match the kind of support you want.
Mountlake Terrace is a smaller local market, so nearby in-person appointments may be more limited than in larger cities. Virtual psychiatry can expand your options across Washington while still letting you choose based on schedule, focus area, and fit. Psychiatry appointments for medication management are usually shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, read each psychiatrist’s bio to understand their approach, appointment style, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Psychiatric care in Mountlake Terrace 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 by showing psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, verifying your insurance details, and estimating your out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse profiles, compare virtual and in-person options, 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.
