Every day is a new beginning
Welcome — I know it might be hard to believe you're here, but here you are. And I’m so glad you made it.
Let me tell you a bit about myself so you can decide if we’re a good fit. I bring over 25 years of healthcare experience, including 12 years as a nurse practitioner. I’m dual-certified as both a Family Nurse Practitioner and a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. My background gives me a deep understanding of how your physical health, mental health, and personal life experiences all intersect — and how that interplay shapes your overall well-being.
Because of that, I take a holistic, whole-person approach to care. My goal is to partner with you to create a personalized, evidence-based treatment plan. This may include traditional psychiatric medication, therapy, psychoeducation, and complementary strategies like nutrition, movement, meditation, supplements, and more. When appropriate, I can also order and interpret lab work to better understand your full health picture.
During our first visit, we’ll dive into your history and your reasons for seeking care. Most clients leave their initial appointment with a working diagnosis and the beginning of a thoughtful treatment plan — which may or may not include medication.
Above all, I approach every visit with curiosity, compassion, and an open mind. I’m here to listen and understand your unique needs, so you can move forward — and turn over a New Leaf.
