What should a new client know about working with you?

I am a nurse practitioner board certified in addictions, and mental health, with 12 years of experience providing general mental health services, and specific mental health conditions like ADHD, Autism, learning disorder, anxiety, and depression. My appointments start with an evaluation where I ask some questions, and listen intently, and together, we will formulate a plan of care for you that is easy to adhere to. I prioritize all your concerns. I provide some psychotherapy or may refer you to a psychologist for talk therapy and other modalities. A typical initial visit with me takes about 45 minutes during which your plan of care will be developed. I expect you to adhere to the plan of care, and come for your visits either in person or via telehealth. I believe that progress is made with consistent care and adherence to appointments.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

So, I utilize some diagnostic tools and questionnaires. If you are already diagnosed, we can continue with medication management and therapy. We do offer talk therapy .
