I am a dedicated Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a deep passion for strengthening mental health across diverse communities and advocating for lifelong learning and growth. I have experience treating a wide range of mental health disorders, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, PTSD, sleep disorders, and substance use disorders. With a background in treating individuals of all ages—children, adolescents, adults, and geriatric patients—I’ve worked in a variety of settings, including inpatient wards, outpatient clinics, telehealth, and crisis centers. Growing up in the countryside, I understand the value of community and the unique challenges rural areas face in accessing quality healthcare. My upbringing taught me the importance of hard work, empathy, and family—values I bring into my practice every day. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family, exploring nature through hiking, and staying active to maintain my own mental and physical health. My mission extends beyond the clinical setting. I am committed to connecting with individuals in rural communities and beyond, especially those who face barriers in accessing mental health services. Through the convenience of telehealth, I strive to break down those barriers, offering support to anyone on their path toward mental wellness, regardless of their location. I hope that through my practice, you'll feel the commitment and care I bring to each encounter. Your mental health journey is valued and supported every step of the way as we work together towards healing and growth.
