I'm a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner serving clients across Florida via telehealth, and I specialize in anxiety, depression, and ADHD. What I want you to know most is that I genuinely care — not just about your symptoms, but about you as a whole person. I've always been drawn to mental health because I understand what it feels like to struggle, and that empathy is at the core of everything I do. Outside of work, you'll find me with a camera in hand, rock climbing, or staying active — I bring that same energy and engagement into every session with my clients.
