As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with over 15 years of experience in mental health, my journey has been profoundly shaped by both my professional and personal encounters with psychiatric conditions. Experience Serving as a nursing director, & director of clinical services I have cultivated a deep understanding of the complexities of mental health care, emphasizing the importance of tailored, holistic approaches to treatment. My own experiences with treating mental health challenges have instilled in me a profound empathy for my patients, inspiring me to foster an environment of trust and open dialogue. I believe in integrating evidence-based practices with compassionate, individualized care, empowering individuals to reclaim their narratives and achieve lasting healing. My mission is to not only treat psychiatric conditions but to also advocate for systemic change that recognizes the multifaceted nature of mental health.

Outside of being a PMHNP, I enjoy spending time with my family, experiencing new cultures, and traveling. Cooking is one of my favorite past times and Im always looking to try my hand at recipes. I have been fortunate in my life to gain education from a variety of health care professionals that have shaped my personal and professional life.
