I am a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). I provide care to children, adolescents, and adults, and my background in both family medicine and psychiatric mental health allows me to consider the important connection between physical and mental well-being.

I evaluate and manage a wide range of psychiatric and behavioral health concerns, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar and other mood disorders, trauma and PTSD, personality disorders, substance use and addiction, chronic stress, anger and aggression, sleep concerns, and emotional and behavioral difficulties. My medical background also informs my work with individuals whose mental health may be affected by chronic pain, medical conditions, medications, or other physical health concerns.

In addition to my medical and psychiatric training, I have specialized training and certifications in various evidence-based psychotherapy modalities. My therapeutic work may include individual therapy, trauma-focused therapy, family therapy, and parent-child therapeutic approaches. This combination of medical, psychiatric, and therapeutic training allows me to provide care that is individualized to the needs of each person and family.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Raleigh

Searching for OCD therapists in Raleigh starts with finding someone trained in obsessive-compulsive disorder care, not just general anxiety support. OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, reassurance seeking, avoidance, and distress tied to specific fears or routines. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use when supporting people living with OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare therapists, look for bios that specifically mention ERP, OCD, intrusive thoughts, compulsions, anxiety, or related concerns.

Raleigh has a strong mental health care community, but the right fit still depends on practical details. Some people prefer an in-person office near downtown, North Hills, or other parts of the Triangle, while others choose virtual appointments for more schedule flexibility. When reviewing OCD therapists, look closely at whether they list ERP training, how they describe their work with OCD, and whether they offer appointment times that fit your calendar. A therapist who lists OCD as an area of familiarity may have different training than one who clearly describes ERP experience, so reading profiles before booking can help you make a more informed choice.

Therapy in Raleigh can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, review their specialties and availability, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can compare bios, check fit, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
