About Me
I am a dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 30 years of experience in healthcare. For over a decade, I have had the privilege of serving the Manitowoc and Sheboygan communities through Lakeshore Community Health, now Noble Community Clinics, providing comprehensive care in both primary care and behavioral health settings.
My clinical passion lies in helping individuals struggling with mental health conditions, substance use disorders, and the effects of trauma. I have extensive experience providing Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), including Suboxone and Vivitrol, and I am committed to supporting patients through recovery with a compassionate, structured, and evidence-based approach.
I believe healthcare should focus on the whole person—not just symptoms or diagnoses. Physical health, mental wellness, emotional well-being, lifestyle habits, and environmental factors all play an important role in overall health. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where patients feel heard, respected, and empowered to take an active role in their care.
As the founder of Mind & Body Renew, I combine traditional medicine with functional and integrative approaches to help identify and address the root causes of illness. I am passionate about partnering with patients to create individualized treatment plans that promote healing, long-term wellness, and a better quality of life.
Originally from Texas, I moved to Wisconsin in 1999 after my marriage and have proudly called this community home ever since. My husband and I have raised four wonderful children and are blessed with nine grandchildren who bring tremendous joy to our lives. When I am not caring for patients, I enjoy spending time with family, traveling, and spoiling our two beloved fur babies.
I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward better health, healing, and renewal.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Madison
Finding addiction therapists in Madison starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, nicotine use, compulsive behaviors, and co-occurring concerns like anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to address. Some therapists use approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, or harm reduction frameworks. Some people may also work with a prescriber as part of their care team.
Madison has a strong mental health care community, with both local offices and virtual appointments available. Your search may include therapists near downtown, the university area, or surrounding neighborhoods, as well as therapists who offer virtual care across Wisconsin. Recovery can involve progress, setbacks, and changing needs, so it helps to look for a therapist whose profile reflects a non-judgmental style and experience with addiction care. You can also compare availability, session format, therapy approach, and whether a free phone consultation is offered before booking.
Addiction therapy in Madison can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay for sessions. Headway helps you find addiction therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, show upfront cost estimates, and are accepting new patients. You can review bios, compare appointment times, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
