Welcome! I'm a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who provides compassionate, patient-centered care. My practice focuses on adults and adolescents navigating anxiety, mood disorders, and emotional challenges. I began my career as a nurse, where I witnessed firsthand the profound impact that compassionate care can have — that experience is what inspired me to specialize in mental health.

I believe in listening first and understanding your unique story before anything else. My goal is to create a space where you feel truly heard and understood, so we can build a personalized treatment plan that supports your healing and lasting well-being. Outside of my practice, I enjoy family time and traveling.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood changes, trauma, or feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges? When mental health symptoms begin affecting your work, relationships, sleep, or daily functioning, it can feel difficult to know where to turn. You don't have to face it alone.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 15 years of healthcare experience providing compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for adults throughout Washington. I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, and other mental health conditions through personalized medication management and supportive therapy.

My approach is collaborative, holistic, and centered on your unique needs and goals. I take the time to understand your experiences, concerns, and strengths so we can develop a treatment plan that helps you feel more balanced, focused, and in control of your life. I believe healing begins when people feel heard, respected, and supported.

I currently offer convenient telehealth appointments and strive to provide a welcoming, judgment-free environment where you can feel comfortable discussing your concerns. Taking the first step toward better mental health can be challenging, but support is available. If you're ready to explore treatment options, I invite you to reach out to schedule a consultation.
