About
I believe healing happens when you feel genuinely heard, respected, and supported as a whole person, not just a diagnosis.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 15 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care. I work with children ages 10 and older, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, mood disorders, trauma, and psychotic disorders. Many of the clients I support feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or stuck and are seeking clarity, stability, and relief.
I earned my master’s degree in nursing from the University of South Alabama. My approach is collaborative, individualized, and compassionate, with a focus on understanding each client’s full experience, strengths, and goals. I provide thoughtful evaluations, clear education, and treatment planning that may include medication management and supportive care.
Seeking mental health care can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I strive to meet clients with respect, understanding, and support while helping them improve emotional well-being and daily functioning. I would be honored to support you as you take the next step toward healing and growth when you feel ready.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 10 years of experience providing therapy to children, adolescents, and adults. I specialize in helping individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, grief and loss, family conflict, and life's many transitions. My approach is strength-based, holistic, and trauma-informed, with a focus on helping clients build resilience, develop practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.
I earned my Master of Social Work from Columbia University and have advanced training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP). Throughout my career, I have supported individuals and families facing a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges.
I believe therapy is most effective when it is built on trust, collaboration, and connection. My goal is to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to explore your experiences. Together, we will build on your strengths, navigate life's challenges, and work toward goals that align with your values.

My go-to approach for treating depression is an eclectic approach to individualize care for what my client is needing. I find the best benefit in using a mixture of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), person-centered therapy (PCT), and mindfulness, because the combination of these three therapies incorporates thoughts, emotions, and body awareness. I believe addressing therapeutic issues holistically can be quite effective and address a multitude of my clients' needs.
During depression counseling, I teach the following tools:
I know a client is making meaningful progress in depression counseling when they are feeling more empowered, their symptoms have decreased in intensity, duration, and/or frequency, and their coping skills have increased.I love when clients are able to celebrate their hard work and say, “I was able to use my inner champion instead of my inner critic when I didn't cross everything off my to-do list!” or “I was able to journal when I was feeling low this week instead of doom scrolling!
Clients can supplement their time in depression counseling with journaling, mindful walks, or other enjoyable forms of exercise, deep breathing practices at home, comforting hobbies, and social support, along with healthy social media use. I tend to lean towards coping skills that feel comforting, loving, soothing, etc. during times of depression.
To prepare for your first depression counseling session, you can reflect on what goals you want to work on in therapy, what obstacles have gotten in your way, and what you might need from a therapist. Remember therapy is about YOU, so it is important that you find a therapist you connect with and feel empowered and comfortable enough to be vulnerable with. It is also completely normal to feel nervous and/or anxious before starting therapy; congratulations on being brave and showing up for yourself in a loving way!
