Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Many people seek psychiatric care when anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, trauma, or persistent stress begin interfering with work, relationships, school, or daily life. Whether you're experiencing symptoms for the first time or have been struggling for years, my goal is to provide thoughtful, evidence-based care tailored to your individual needs.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, supportive psychotherapy, and pharmacogenomic testing when clinically appropriate. Pharmacogenomic testing can provide additional information about how your genetics may influence the way your body processes or responds to certain psychiatric medications. While it does not predict exactly which medication will work best, it can be a useful tool when selecting or adjusting treatment, particularly for individuals who have experienced medication side effects, limited benefit from previous treatments, or multiple medication trials.

I believe treatment works best when it is collaborative, personalized, and focused on your goals. Together, we’ll consider your symptoms, history, preferences, previous treatment experiences, and, when helpful, pharmacogenomic information to develop a treatment plan that feels both clinically sound and individualized to you.

You might feel alone in this struggle but you don’t have to be. My work, which has been shaped by my own experiences of suffering and clinical training, is more than a career, it is a calling. I help people move from surviving to living with intention, calm, and confidence.

I have an undergraduate degree in psychology, and a master’s in clinical social work. I specialize in treating OCD and other anxiety disorders with Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy. I use this therapy because I’ve seen it help people begin living the lives that they want to live without fear being the driving force.

I also have a background in working with parents who are experiencing challenging situations. Whenever I work with children, I work with the caregivers as well in order to improve family unity and create lasting change.

I am very trauma-aware in that I recognize the role that past experiences have had in shaping who we are today. My philosophy is that these experiences don’t have to hold us back, but that healing is a journey to be embraced.

Therapist

Virtual • Indiana


Therapy can be a powerful space for support, insight, and meaningful change. With more than 20 years of experience, I work with clients across the lifespan, including those in the "sandwich generation," older adults, caregivers, and people facing serious illness. I help individuals navigate complex family dynamics, work and health stressors, and major life transitions. A central focus of my work is helping clients communicate more effectively in the relationships that matter most-with partners, parents, adult children, and siblings-and break the patterns that keep important conversations stuck.
