You’re smart, self-aware, and successful in many areas of life—but relationships are where you struggle.

I help clients who feel stuck in toxic or unfulfilling relationships rebuild their self-trust, break free from people-pleasing, and develop healthy boundaries—so they can start creating relationships that feel emotionally safe, respectful, and real.

Are you questioning yourself constantly, second-guessing your needs, feeling anxious when you speak up, and guilty when you say no? You may have done the inner work—but you still find yourself repeating the same patterns in love. I'm passionate about helping my clients build more fulfilling relationships.

I've spent over 16 years working with adults and older adults, many walking into therapy for the first time after years of pushing through in silence.

I believe healing is most effective when we care for the whole person, not just the diagnosis. As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide compassionate, evidence-based care for children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related disorders, mood disorders, and other mental health concerns.

My practice combines comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and trauma-informed care with an understanding of the mind-body connection. I also provide ketamine-assisted treatment for appropriate candidates and incorporate integrative approaches, including nervous system regulation, mindfulness, breathwork, and evidence-informed energy-based practices when they align with a client’s values and treatment goals.

My role is to create a safe, collaborative space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered as we work toward lasting emotional wellness and improved quality of life.
