In-Person Therapists in Rhode Island

As a Doctor of Nursing Practice and Family Nurse Practitioner with over 15 years of experience, I have provided care across clinical settings ranging from emergency medicine to family practice. My background in rural critical access and telehealth has fueled my commitment to expanding high-quality healthcare for underserved communities and busy individuals. I hold multiple advanced degrees in nursing and education, and I am nationally board certified as both a Family Nurse Practitioner and a Certified Nurse Educator. In addition to my clinical work, I am passionate about graduate-level nursing education, believing that patient understanding is the cornerstone of long-term health. Now based in Alaska, I combine clinical expertise with a compassionate approach to ensure my patients receive evidence-based, personalized support. My goal is to bridge the gap in traditional care through timely, accessible consultations that prioritize your wellness journey.

Welcome! I am glad that you are here. I work with individuals, couples, and families who are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, anger, life transitions, trauma, and other emotional or behavioral concerns. I provide a supportive, judgment-free environment where clients can feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes. Sessions are collaborative and tailored to your individual needs and goals. We may use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), strengths-based counseling, trauma-informed care, and practical coping strategies. Together, we identify challenges, explore patterns of thinking and behavior, build healthy coping skills, and develop realistic steps toward positive change. For clients who desire it, I also integrate Christian faith and biblical principles into counseling. My goal is to meet you where you are, help you recognize your strengths, and support you in becoming the healthiest version of yourself.

I have been practicing since 2015. Trained in EMDR, CBT, CPT
