About Vickie
My professional experiences have given me a broad, well-rounded understanding of mental illness and the impact it can have on one's life. I bring both expert clinical knowledge and a compassionate approach to help clients navigate mental health challenges.
My focus is medication management, selecting the most effective treatment for each client based on careful evaluation of their individual needs.
I believe effective mental health care addresses the whole person and involves working together to find a path forward that fits your life. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered in your own care.
"I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with 14 years of experience in both outpatient and inpatient settings."
