As a Psychiatrist mental health nurse practitioner with over 22 years in nursing practice, I have a strong foundation in evidence-based practice and psychiatric care. I have been trained to diagnose and treat mental health conditions using the latest research and clinical guidelines. Your treatment plan, which may include medication management, psychotherapy, or a combination of both, would be based on my professional expertise and designed to address the biological, psychological, and social aspects of your patient's well-being.

My identity as a spirit-filled Christian means that my faith is a core part of who I am. My faith often includes a belief in the power of prayer, spiritual guidance, and a holistic view of health that encompasses the mind, body, and spirit. This translates into a deep sense of empathy and a non-judgmental approach, seeing each person as a valuable individual created in God's image.

I bring empathy, humor, and a down-to-earth style to create a space where you can feel safe, seen, and truly yourself. Therapy should feel like a real conversation, not a script. I value connection and will support you with compassion—while also gently challenging unhelpful patterns. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back and help you move forward.

When I was growing up, I always thought I wasn’t dealt a good hand in life. I had family issues that would top any reality tv show to date. I often felt like there was no one I could really open up to and share my inner thoughts and feelings with. I was wearing “masks” before the pandemic, always smiling when deep down I wanted to cry. I tried therapy a couple times and it just didn’t work for me. I felt like I wasn’t understood, that I was being judged. I decided to give it another shot and found my match, a therapist that looked like me, that could relate to me and my struggle. It felt genuine and not forced. That’s what made me want to get into the field of Social Work. Now, with 8 years of professional experience, I live out my purpose every day as a guide to help people unlock the tools of empowerment that they already possess. Whatever the issue, (whether it be getting through everyday life, coming to terms with past traumas, getting over a bad break-up, parenting/abandonment issues, lack of self-esteem, or a host of other problems), my eclectic approach to therapy will allow you to embark on a journey of self-reflection, self-love, and self-care. I look forward to helping you find your inner peace while getting closer to your winning hand in life.
