Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Georgia


Welcome - I’m glad you’re here.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide compassionate, holistic mental health care through therapy and medication management for adults when appropriate. I take a whole-person approach to treatment, recognizing that emotional well-being is influenced by life experiences, relationships, stress, physical health, and daily functioning - not just symptoms alone.

Many of the clients I work with struggle with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, overthinking, emotional overwhelm, burnout, relationship stress, or difficult life transitions that affect their ability to function at work, in relationships, and in everyday life. Often, they feel stuck in unhealthy patterns that are not improving despite their efforts and are looking for practical support, deeper understanding, and meaningful change.

I believe effective treatment involves more than simply prescribing medication - it’s about understanding the underlying patterns, stressors, and experiences impacting your mental health. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and individualized to your unique needs and goals. My goal is to help clients build emotional resilience, improve mood and focus, strengthen healthy boundaries, and regain confidence in their daily lives.

My goal is to provide a safe, judgment-free space where clients feel heard, understood, and supported throughout their healing journey. For those who value spirituality, I also offer faith-informed care, thoughtfully incorporating spiritual perspectives into treatment while honoring your personal beliefs and values.

Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to navigate these challenges alone. Whether you are feeling mentally exhausted, emotionally stuck, or simply ready for change, my goal is to help you move toward greater balance, clarity, and overall wellness at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Augusta

Searching for therapists in Augusta starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Some people look for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or stress. Others may want a therapist with training in a specific approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care. As you compare Augusta therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy style, and experience that match what you want to focus on.

Augusta offers a range of therapy and counseling options, including in-person appointments near local neighborhoods and virtual sessions across Georgia. If local office availability is limited or your schedule varies, virtual therapy can make it easier to find a therapist who fits your calendar. You may also want to compare appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading each therapist’s profile can help you understand how they communicate, what they specialize in, and what sessions may look like.

Therapy in Augusta can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists in Augusta, enter your insurance details, review therapist bios, and book directly when you find a fit.
