Hi, I'm Cassie (Cassandra), a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over five years of experience in mental health care.

I believe mental health treatment should feel supportive, collaborative, and free of judgment. Every person has a unique story, and I take the time to listen, understand your goals, and create a treatment plan tailored to your individual needs.

I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress, burnout, sleep concerns, and other common mental health conditions. Through thoughtful psychiatric evaluation and medication management, my goal is to help you find clarity, restore balance, and move forward with confidence.

Whether you are seeking support for the first time or looking for a fresh approach to your mental health care, I strive to provide a comfortable and welcoming space where you feel heard, respected, and supported.

I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward improved mental wellness and helping you build the tools needed to thrive in everyday life.

You show up every day: for your clients, your patients, your family, your team. But somewhere between all of that, showing up for yourself got lost. If you are a caregiver, a healthcare professional, or someone who has spent years keeping everything running, you may have noticed the anxiety, the exhaustion, or the low-grade stress that just will not lift. That is exactly who I work with. As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Certified Compassion Fatigue Professional with more than 25 years in healthcare, including mental health crisis urgent care, inpatient and outpatient settings, and telehealth work with adults experiencing depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, and panic disorders, I bring clinical depth and a genuine understanding of what burnout does to the body and mind. I trained at Azusa Pacific University (BSN, Public Health Nursing) and Wilkes University (MSN, PMHNP), and my goal is to help high-functioning professionals and caregivers restore clarity, resilience, and balance.
