About Mercy
I’ve been practicing medicine for 8 years, and my passion for helping people improve their health and well-being continues to grow every day. I specialize in Primary and Urgent Care, Mental Health, Opioid Addiction Treatment, and Medical Weight Loss, and I’m deeply committed to providing compassionate, patient-centered care. I believe in forming a true partnership with my patients—listening to their needs, understanding their unique challenges, and working together to create personalized treatment plans. Staying up-to-date on the latest advancements in medicine allows me to offer the most effective care possible. When I’m not working, I enjoy skiing, which keeps me active and helps me stay grounded. My goal is to empower every patient I work with to take control of their health, navigate challenges, and achieve their best quality of life.

How do you work with clients with depression?
I approach clients with depression by creating a compassionate, judgment-free environment where they feel supported. I use evidence-based therapies such as trauma-focused care and humanistic approaches, combined with lifestyle guidance and medication management when appropriate, to help clients regain balance and achieve long-term recovery.
How do you work with clients with anxiety?
I help clients with anxiety by using a holistic, patient-centered approach that may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and, if needed, medication management. Together, we work to identify triggers, develop coping mechanisms, and build resilience to reduce symptoms and improve overall well-being.
How can you provide care remotely?
I provide care remotely through secure telehealth platforms, offering flexibility and convenience for patients. Virtual appointments allow me to address mental health concerns, addiction treatment, and other needs effectively, ensuring access to quality care from the comfort of your home.
