Hello! I am a board-certified Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to caring for individuals and families across Texas. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice from The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston in 2025 and my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Texas Tech University in 2018. I have experience in emergency medicine, inpatient psychiatry, crisis services, substance detoxification, trauma, and sexual assault care—backgrounds that shape my compassionate, trauma-informed approach. I enjoy working with children (ages 5+), teens, and adults. I treat a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, mood and behavioral disorders, trauma, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia, always with warmth, respect, and clinical expertise.

My experience centers on supporting clients of all ages through a wide range of life challenges. Guided by a solution-focused perspective, I believe holistic healing is a foundational part of effective client care. I am trained in EMDR, a therapeutic modality that helps clients process trauma and other difficult life experiences that may interfere with personal growth, relationships, and mental health. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, and other concerns that can make it difficult to feel grounded or move forward. I hold a master’s degree from Colorado Christian University and have received training in both play therapy and EMDR. I have also worked with clients experiencing dual diagnoses within the field of substance use disorders, which has deepened my understanding of the connection between emotional pain, coping, and healing.
