I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with roots in community health, where I first witnessed how deeply unmet our collective need for psychiatric care remains. Six years ago, I moved fully into psychiatric practice not to “fix” minds, but to walk alongside people as we navigate the layered terrain of wellness together.
My approach is whole-bodied and whole-hearted: tending not just to thoughts or symptoms, but to the living weave of body, mind, spirit, and the relational fields we move within. Mental wellness is not a single destination but a rhythm—shaped by culture, community, and the weight of expectations we often silently carry.
With each person I meet, I seek not to prescribe a path but to co-create it: listening deeply, honoring identity and experience, and shaping care plans that resonate with each person’s unique way of being. My door is open to new patients ready to explore this work together in a space of compassion and collaboration.
