I provide evidence-based mental health care, including medication management, lifestyle modifications, and other therapeutic approaches.
My passion for mental health care was sparked when I volunteered at a crisis hotline. I later earned a master's degree in nursing from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Since then, I have gained valuable experience in community and hospital settings.
