With over a decade of psychiatric nursing experience, I've built a practice around making people feel truly understood from the very first conversation.

I work with adults and teens navigating anxiety, depression, substance use, and eating disorders, combining medication management with therapeutic support to care for the whole person. My practice is fully virtual, so you can access care from wherever feels most comfortable for you.
