As a holistic dual board certified mental health and family nurse practitioner, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step!
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.
I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for children, adolescents, and adults. I specialize in the evaluation, diagnosis, and medication management of ADHD, anxiety disorders, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions. My goal is to create a supportive, judgment-free environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered throughout your mental health journey.
I believe that every person's story is unique, so I take the time to understand your concerns, symptoms, lifestyle, and treatment goals before developing an individualized care plan. I incorporate medication management with supportive counseling and evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques and Motivational Interviewing, to help you build practical coping skills and achieve lasting improvement.
Whether you're struggling with difficulty focusing, persistent worry, overwhelming stress, low mood, emotional challenges, or life transitions, I work collaboratively with you to help you regain balance and improve your overall well-being. My focus is on delivering personalized, compassionate care that supports meaningful, long-term success in both your mental health and daily life.
Some people arrive feeling mentally exhausted—like their mind is running a marathon they never signed up for. Maybe anxiety keeps you on edge, depression has drained your motivation, or ADHD makes everyday tasks feel harder than they should. Whatever brought you here, my role is simple: help you sort through the noise and find a clearer path forward. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, and life transitions, creating a space where you can talk openly, think clearly, and begin making meaningful changes.
Mental health should not be a taboo subject or a rushed intervention. Each person responds differently to life events. There should be no shame or stigma in sharing feelings and seeking help.
I am here to help you find your balance and the correct care plan o regain yourself and succeed in life. I strive to offer excellent and individualized care—including medications and therapy—because each client is a unique individual who deserves understanding and is treated with dignity and respect.
I believe effective mental health care starts with feeling heard, respected, and understood. I take a collaborative, non-judgmental approach and work closely with you to understand your goals, concerns, and life context—not just your symptoms.
I value clear communication and transparency, so I’ll explain diagnoses, treatment options, and medications in a way that’s easy to understand. My goal is to help you feel confident and informed about your care, not rushed or overwhelmed.
I provide evidence-based medication management while considering the whole person—mental, emotional, and physical health. I welcome questions and encourage active participation in treatment decisions so we can create a plan that truly fits your needs.
Whether you’re seeking care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, or ongoing medication management, I aim to create a supportive, safe space where progress feels achievable and care feels personal.

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 Seattle
Finding the right psychiatrist in Seattle starts with knowing what type of mental health care you want to access. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and provide medication management. Psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can also diagnose and prescribe through their license. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or other behavioral health concerns in Seattle, WA, a prescriber may be one fit. Therapists can also be a fit for talk therapy, and some people choose one or both types of care based on their needs.
Seattle has many mental health providers across neighborhoods like Capitol Hill, Ballard, Fremont, and South Lake Union, so a focused search can help you compare options more easily. For psychiatric care, consider appointment availability, virtual or in-person format, and whether the psychiatrist lists experience with your concerns. Medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each psychiatrist’s approach, session structure, and communication style.
Psychiatric care in Seattle can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists in Seattle, Washington who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and work with your plan. You can compare bios, review availability, and book directly when you are 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.
