Hi, I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with experience in both hospital and outpatient care. I work with adults dealing with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, substance use and more. I’m warm, easy to talk to, and I take time to really listen so you feel heard and supported. My approach is simple—we meet you where you are and work together on a plan that fits your life. I’m committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care and look forward to partnering with you on your mental health journey.
I am licensed in both MD and OR. I do not believe in an ideal client. As humans, we are all unique and need different things to thrive, so I will work with you and your experiences to help you be your ideal self. Your experiences do not have to define you but can aid in personal growth in one way or another. If you are open to self-exploration with a mix-bag of feedback, I believe we can work well together. This journey is not always a pretty one but can be rewarding. I am able to assist my clients by providing a safe space for exploration to allow my clients to go through their feelings. At times I am able to help clients name their feelings, but I am just a passenger, supporting safe travel through an emotional/ mental outing.Allow me to help you through your next adventure, where you learn more about your strengths and abilities. At times, your dislikes are also your strengths.
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.
