As an Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner specializing in Psychiatric Mental Health, I’m licensed to perform assessments and diagnoses and have the authority to prescribe medications.
If you are struggling with a mental health disorder, including depression, anxiety, mood disorder, sleep disorder, and trauma, I can help. I evaluate and treat symptoms; my treatment approach is based on evidence-based practice and treatment guidelines to provide care to adult patients across their lifespans. Beside my work in mental health, I have worked many years in health care in different settings, and for the past 14 years I worked as a registered nurse.
My philosophy of care is to provide comprehensive, patient-centered, mental health treatment which includes brief psychotherapy, wellness promotion, and medication management.
The goals of your first appointment are to get to know each other and to start to build a professional relationship, followed by an initial evaluation of your mental health concerns. The appointment will take anywhere from 60-90 minutes. Please bring your past medical and mental health records, and diagnostic tests to the appointment. After the initial visit, your follow-up care is usually 30-45 minutes, during which we evaluate the prescribed treatment for effectiveness and any need for modification to the treatment plan.
