What should a new client know about working with you?
*Please check if your insurance plan is Medicare/Medicaid, as our practice does not see patients with Medicare/Medicaid coverage.* I hold a Master's degree in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing from Walden University, which equips me to provide specialized and compassionate care tailored to your mental health needs
Stimulants Policy
Providers at Brighter Light Behavioral Health Clinic PLLC do not prescribe Stimulants such as Adderall, Ritalin, Vyvanse, etc., to treat ADHD. This is consistent with current treatment guidelines and practice recommendations against prolonged use of Stimulants because they worsen anxiety, depression and fatigue. Stimulants also have high abuse potential, the risk for dependence and tolerance, and can be fatal in overdose, especially when combined with alcohol and/or opioid medications.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Welcome to Brighter Light Behavioral Health Services, where board-certified psychiatric care meets the convenience of secure, technology-driven telehealth. We support individuals, families, and communities across multiple states with personalized mental and behavioral health treatment designed around your life.

Together, we make expert behavioral health care more accessible, more personal, and more compassionate.
