Welcome! You've landed in the right place if you are a woman navigating life's transitions - becoming a mother, stepping into a new career, adjusting to a shifting sense of self, or carrying anxiety or depression that feels too heavy to hold alone. My passion and specialization is in working with women in every season of life, with a particular heart for perinatal depression and anxiety, the emotional weight of new motherhood, and the unique pressures women face as they grow in their careers. Whether your anxiety feels like a quiet hum or an overwhelming roar, you deserve real, compassionate support.

I'm a psychiatric nurse practitioner in Maryland with a background in both medication management and therapy — and I believe the best care happens when we tailor it to you. I specialize in anxiety, ADHD, and depression, and I work with patients who want a provider who actually listens before deciding anything. Many of the people I see found me through their community — they wanted someone they could trust, who'd take the time to get to know them. My approach is warm and direct: I'll tell you exactly what I'm thinking and make sure every session reflects where you are right now.
