I am a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP)–prepared, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing focused, evidence-based psychiatric care for adults managing substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, and mood disorders. I specialize in working with individuals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or have not experienced consistent progress with prior treatment. My approach is structured and goal-oriented, beginning with a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, followed by personalized medication management and ongoing support to promote stability and long-term functioning. Clients can expect a clear plan, practical guidance, and a collaborative approach to care. I prioritize timely access to services, with new clients typically seen within 1–3 business days. All visits are conducted via secure telehealth for convenience and privacy.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
