With over two decades in healthcare, I bring a broad clinical background and a strong commitment to whole-person, integrative psychiatric care. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, trained at the University of Missouri–Kansas City.

I’ve practiced in a wide range of clinical environments —settings where I witnessed both the resilience of the body and the complexity of the mind. I’ve worked closely with underserved populations, individuals navigating acute medical crises, and families facing moments of both joy and heartbreak. These experiences have shaped my understanding of the deep connection between physical and emotional health and strengthened my commitment to care that is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in each patient’s unique values and goals.

My therapeutic style is directive and goal-oriented. I work closely with patients to clarify priorities and make practical, measurable progress. Whether you’re exploring treatment for the first time or returning to care with a new perspective, my aim is to provide a calm, respectful space where we can work together toward meaningful, sustainable change.
