About Provider

About Teri

I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner who has been working outpatient since 2021. Prior to this, I was an RN working in psychiatry for 14 years. I see clients with many challenges and help them find proper diagnosis and treatment.

I listen to clients and work together with them to come up with a treatment plan that they are comfortable with. I have worked with a variety of diagnoses and feel that proper diagnosis is the first step to proper treatment.

If you want someone to listen and work with you, I am here to help.
