Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • North Carolina


I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who works with children, adolescents, and adults. I understand that reaching out for psychiatric care can feel overwhelming—especially when you’ve been struggling for a while, have tried treatments that haven’t worked, or are trying to find the right help for your child.

I work with individuals experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, mood disorders, trauma-related symptoms, autism/neurodivergence, sleep difficulties, and emotional or behavioral dysregulation. My goal is to provide a space where you feel heard, understood, and comfortable being honest about what is and isn’t working.

While I work with all ages across the lifespan, I especially enjoy working with children and adolescents and patterning with parents who are trying to understand complex behavioral, emotional, or attention concerns.

Life has a way of changing us, sometimes in ways we never expected. My passion is helping people navigate those moments with compassion, clarity, and confidence.

As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC), I believe healing isn't about becoming someone new—it's about reconnecting with the person you've always been beneath the stress, pain, burnout, or life transitions.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, overwhelming stress, relationship challenges, grief, substance use recovery, or simply feeling stuck, I provide a supportive, judgment-free space where you can be yourself. You don't have to have all the answers before you walk through my door.

My clients often describe me as genuine, compassionate, easy to talk to, and someone who isn't afraid to bring a little humor into the healing process. I believe therapy can be both meaningful and approachable. Sometimes the most powerful moments happen after we've laughed together.

Above all, I want you to know this:

You don't have to navigate life's journey alone.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Raleigh

Finding postpartum therapists in Raleigh starts with identifying the kind of support that fits your needs. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some people also look for therapy for perinatal depression or support during pregnancy from a prenatal depression therapist. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience in perinatal mental health counseling, postpartum care, and related specialties. A Perinatal Mental Health Certification, or PMH-C, can also signal specialized training.

Raleigh offers a strong mix of local therapy options, and virtual care can make the search easier for new parents with changing schedules, infant care needs, or physical recovery to consider. Some people prefer in-person sessions near home, work, or a familiar part of the city, while others prefer virtual appointments that fit around feeding, naps, or childcare. When narrowing your options, review appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Provider bios can also help you understand a therapist’s communication style, experience with postpartum concerns, and approach before you book.

Therapy in Raleigh can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you find Raleigh therapists who work with postpartum concerns, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. You can browse therapists, review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
