Hi! I'm so glad you're here! :) I know how overwhelming and intimidating it can be to look for help. A safe place and a non-judgmental/unbiased ear are highly coveted and sought after in today's society. Therapy can address infinite issues and struggles that arise in daily life. I know it worked for me-- let it work for you!

I graduated from Northwestern University and have worked with individuals of all backgrounds and ages. I live in Ohio and am licensed in Ohio, Arizona and Virginia.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Ohio, dedicated to helping individuals break old cycles and reclaim their peace. Since 2018, I have provided specialized mental health therapy across diverse settings, including college-based community mental health with BIPOC programming, inpatient addiction care, and private practice. I am an in-network provider with many insurance companies, including Providence Health Plan through the Headway network. My practice focuses heavily on supporting women, students, individuals experiencing various life transitions, and those, who are exhausted from people-pleasing, overcommitting, and ignoring their own boundaries. Together, we work to heal past and present wounds to build a deep, lasting foundation of self-trust and self-love.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Ohio


Welcome. If you are an adult or adolescent in Ohio feeling overwhelmed or stuck, I provide a safe, collaborative space for your mental health journey. I see you as a whole person, not a list of symptoms. Typically, individuals seek psychiatric care when coping mechanisms are no longer enough for persistent anxiety, depression, stress, or mood disorders. Together, we start with a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation to understand your history and goals. If chosen, medication management is introduced thoughtfully at conservative doses and paired with supportive tools to help you build real-world skills and truly thrive.
