I'm so glad you're here. Taking the first step toward caring for your mental health isn't always easy, and I appreciate the opportunity to be part of your journey.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner with nearly 20 years of nursing experience and 9 years of experience as a nurse practitioner. My clinical background includes hospice, primary care, outpatient psychiatry, and inpatient child and adolescent behavioral health. Drawing from these diverse experiences, I provide compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to each person's unique story.

My outpatient practice is currently dedicated to caring for adults with depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, grief, life transitions, and burnout. I believe mental health care should be compassionate, evidence-based, and personalized to your unique story. Whether you're seeking medication management, support through a difficult season, or both, my goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and empowered. Together, we'll create a treatment plan that aligns with your goals, respects your values, and supports lasting well-being.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Arizona


I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) providing compassionate, evidence-based care to adolescents and adults. My approach blends clinical expertise with a collaborative, patient-centered philosophy, I believe treatment works best when you feel heard, understood, and actively involved in your care.

I earned my graduate degree in psychiatric-mental health nursing from Northern Kentucky University and have experience treating a wide range of conditions, including anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, trauma-related conditions, mood disorders, and medication management for complex psychiatric presentations. My background includes working with individuals navigating life transitions, high-achieving professionals experiencing burnout, and patients seeking thoughtful, personalized medication management.

I specialize in comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and medication management, with a focus on clarity, safety, and long-term stability. I aim to avoid overmedication while ensuring symptoms are effectively treated. When appropriate, I integrate supportive therapy techniques into sessions to help patients build insight, resilience, and practical coping strategies.

My practice is fully telehealth-based, allowing for convenient, private access to care. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable discussing what’s really going on — without judgment — and to work together toward meaningful, sustainable improvement in your mental health.
