Hi! I'm so glad you're here. I have been a LPC-MHSP in TN for over 2 years, and have a long history of mental health training and experience prior to that. I have lived all over - Guam, NE, CO, IL - and bring my love for learning and connecting with people to each aspect of my life. With curiosity and empathy I have been able to grow my professional experiences to include practicing in community mental health settings, inpatient hospitals, collaborative care environments, and now in private practice. I enjoy the freedom and autonomy in which private practice offers, as it allows me to meet each client where they are and adjust our treatment goals as needed.

I believe in empowering people to take charge of their own present and future lives. Generally, when you seek therapy, you are overwhelmed and ready to change. I believe you have it within yourself to make sense of your life, focus on creating the life you desire, and feel in control. I use strength and solution-based, client -centered psychotherapy. I am nonjudgmental, compassionate, and have a sense of humor. Regardless of the weight of therapy, we will also laugh!

Supporting Neurodiverse Minds with Compassion, Expertise, and Evidence-Based Care

I specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of neurodiverse teens, young adults, and adults. My practice is dedicated to helping individuals better understand themselves and thrive in a world that often isn’t designed for how they think, feel, or process information.

Whether you or your loved one is navigating Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, OCD, Bipolar Disorder, or co-occurring challenges such as anxiety, mood, or behavioral disorders, I provide comprehensive evaluations and personalized treatment designed to meet your unique needs.

My goal is to create a space where clients feel understood, empowered, and equipped with tools that work in their real lives. If you're seeking compassionate, research-driven support from a clinician who understands neurodiversity—not just clinically, but humanly—I invite you to book a session.

Let’s work together to uncover your strengths and build the skills for a more confident, connected, and fulfilling life.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with six years of experience helping adults navigate ADHD, mood disorders, anxiety, substance use concerns, and personality disorders. I trained at Vanderbilt University School of Nursing and have a background in neuroscience research, which shapes my practical, brain-based approach to care.

I believe people do best when they’re treated as whole humans—not just a diagnosis. I enjoy breaking down complex mental health concepts into clear, bite-sized explanations so patients understand why they feel the way they do and how treatment helps. My style is collaborative, direct, and supportive.

I’m comfortable working with complex or long-standing symptoms and don’t shy away from difficult cases. I also enjoy working with creatives in the Nashville community and understand the unique pressures that can come with creative work. My goal is to help patients feel empowered, informed, and supported as they move toward meaningful, sustainable change.
