Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Arizona


I'm a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner who supports teens, young adults, and families working through constant worry, big emotions, focus challenges, and the impact of difficult life experiences. Before specializing in psychiatry five years ago, I spent 13 yeas in emergency medicine, where I learned how deeply people need to feel seen and supported during overwhelming moments. That experience shaped my approach today: blending medical expertise with genuine curiosity, compassion, and respect for YOUR story. My goal is to create a space where you feel, safe, understood, and able to explore what you are going through with clarity and confidence.

Therapist

If you tend to overthink, second-guess yourself, or feel emotionally drained by stress or relationships, you're not alone. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Together, we'll slow things down, make sense of the patterns keeping you stuck, and build practical tools to help you feel more confident in yourself and your relationships.

I also enjoy working with couples who feel caught in cycles of conflict or disconnection and want to improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen their connection.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over six years of experience providing therapy and more than a decade of experience in social services. I've worked in both community mental health and outpatient settings, and my approach blends insight, curiosity, and collaboration with practical strategies you can use in everyday life. I believe therapy should help you better understand yourself while creating meaningful, lasting change.

Looking for one-stop shopping? Meds and therapy together - I do both. Guaranteed intake appointment within 2 days! Evening and weekend hours available. A provider you can reach directly, by text. Personal responses to all messages within 24 - 48 hours, always.

Thanks for reading this. I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner who works with clients ages 6 to 86 struggling with depression, anxiety, ADHD, borderline personality disorder, substance abuse and other issues. For some clients, I provide both therapy and medication management; for other clients, I work closely with their therapists to optimize their medication experience. I help clients to find stability and reduce suffering. LGBTQ-allied, polyamory-informed. All lifestyles welcome.

Depression and anxiety can be logical responses to difficult life events. Many adults who experienced losses and traumas in childhood have never processed these events and continue to suffer their impacts.

Therapy should help you identify the ways you hold yourself back from greater peace and success. We all pick up dysfunctional patterns along the way and need help to identify and change them. I would like to help you in this process.
