With over 20 years in healthcare and working as a Family Nurse Practitioner, the desire to treat patients better as a “whole” combined with the COVID pandemic of 2020 nearly caused me to stop providing care entirely. Essentially, I was fed up with the medical care being offered to many. Instead of walking away from patient care, I chose a different path. My focus shifted to treating the mental health of the patients & families I have compassionately taken care of in the past,
Congratulations for taking this step toward improving your health! I've worked with Native Americans, Veterans, seniors, new moms, elderly folks, teens and adults. I work with creative people because I understand and respect your uniqueness. I have been a PMHNP for 15 years, and an RN for many more. I earned a BA from CUNY, a BS from NYU, and an MS in Nursing specializing in psychiatry, from SLU. I am a safe and experienced prescriber of medication, and will find the right fit for you.
I work with teenagers and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and body-related concerns. I believe that mental health is deeply connected to the body, and that lasting healing happens when we care for both. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and integrative, recognizing that each person's experiences, strengths, and goals are unique.
Living with my own long-term health challenges has shaped the way I practice. It has strengthened my belief that our emotional and physical well-being are inseparable and has deepened my commitment to helping others find meaningful, sustainable paths toward healing.
I strive to create a safe, inclusive, and affirming space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. I welcome people of all genders, identities, backgrounds, and lived experiences, and I tailor treatment to meet your individual needs and values.
I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner with a background in Anthropology, which informs my appreciation for the biological, psychological, social, and cultural factors that influence mental health. I completed a fellowship in Integrative Reproductive Mental Healthcare and am currently pursuing advanced fellowship training in Nutritional Psychiatry and Ketamine-Assisted Therapy. I have also trained in gender-affirming care and am committed to providing evidence-based, inclusive care that honors each person's unique journey.
Welcome and congratulations on taking this step! I work with individuals who struggle with self-image, anxiety, depression, and self-motivation. I have been practicing for over 8 years. I will work with you to find your strengths and aid in building with you from there.
I believe mental and physical health are deeply connected, which is why I take a whole-
person approach to psychiatric care. As a dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and
Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I bring experience in both medical and
psychiatric care to understand the full picture behind what you’re experiencing. I provide
individualized care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar and other mood disorders,
PTSD and trauma-related conditions, OCD, panic disorder, insomnia, and other
psychiatric concerns. My medical background also allows me to consider how
hormones, thyroid function, medications, sleep, and other physical health factors may
contribute to changes in mood, anxiety, attention, and overall well-being. My goal is to
provide thoughtful, evidence-based treatment in a supportive, judgment-free
environment where you feel heard, understood, and actively involved in your care.
I have been a Mental Health Therapist for 32 years working with Children, Adolescents and Adults.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Scottsdale
Finding postpartum therapists in Scottsdale starts with looking for care that matches your needs after pregnancy and birth. Postpartum support can address depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some therapists also list specialized perinatal training, such as the perinatal mental health certification (PMH-C), in their profiles. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, experience, and approach fit what you want to focus on.
Scottsdale has a range of mental health care options, and the right fit often depends on both specialty and logistics. New parents may need appointment times that work around infant care, physical recovery, work schedules, or changing routines. Virtual sessions can make postpartum care more accessible, especially when travel to an office adds extra planning. Before booking, read therapist bios to understand how each person describes their style, experience with postpartum concerns, and session structure.
Therapy in Scottsdale can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway makes it easier to compare postpartum therapists who are accepting new patients, review their profiles, verify your insurance, and see your estimated cost before you book. From there, you can choose a therapist who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and offers appointments that fit your schedule.
