Anxiety, depression, and stress can quietly take over, leaving you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of how to get back to yourself. You might be functioning on the outside while internally feeling stuck in patterns you can’t quite shift—replaying thoughts, carrying emotional weight, or questioning why things still feel this hard. Over time, it can start to feel like you’ve lost touch with who you are underneath it all. Therapy offers a chance to slow down, make sense of what’s been building, and begin creating space for something different—something that feels more like you.

ADHD can make even the simplest tasks feel scattered and frustrating—leaving you questioning your capabilities and constantly trying to “get it together.” Add the layer of chronic illness or complex medical issues, and daily life can start to feel like a never-ending balancing act. These overlapping struggles can quietly chip away at your energy, confidence, and sense of purpose. If you’re feeling worn thin from trying to hold it all together, you’re not alone. I work with people who are deeply capable but often overwhelmed, helping them move from just managing to feeling more grounded, clear, and aligned with themselves.

It’s hard to explain how exhausting it is when your mind never stops. You’re juggling responsibilities and keeping up appearances, but inside, the constant worry, low motivation, or relentless mental noise is wearing you down. Whether you’re living with anxiety, depression, or the everyday challenges of ADHD, it can feel like you’re always behind—struggling to find focus or peace no matter how hard you try. You’re not alone in this. I help people make sense of these struggles and reconnect with a steadier, more grounded version of themselves.

As a Board-Certified psychiatrist, I have experience treating diverse populations of patients in from various backgrounds. 

Big emotions, persistent worry, or a period of difficult change can make everyday life feel harder to manage. You or your child may be struggling with anxiety, low mood, or adjusting to circumstances that feel unfamiliar or overwhelming. When those feelings continue, it can be difficult to know how to respond or what might help. Therapy can offer a chance to understand these experiences, recognize patterns that may be adding to the struggle, and develop healthier ways to cope and move forward.

Even when things appear fine on the outside, anxiety, depression, or relationship struggles can create an undercurrent of stress that’s hard to ignore. You might feel disconnected from your partner, uncertain about your own needs, or stuck in patterns that leave you feeling unseen or emotionally drained. I work with adults to navigate these challenges with curiosity and compassion—supporting growth that feels both meaningful and sustainable.

Patients can expect a whole-person centered approach through the involvement of empathy and compassion, while acting as their advocate. I will ‘meet them where they are at’ so-to-speak, while collaborating in a team-like fashion. We’ll incorporate both psychotherapy as well as pharmacotherapy alike. This isn’t a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach either, it’s tailor-made, unique to the individual encountered and treated.

When anxiety hijacks your day or old trauma slips in during quiet moments, it can feel like you've lost your footing—disconnected from yourself, even as you carry on for everyone else. Maybe you’re exhausted from overthinking, or weighed down by self-doubt that no one else can see. You're not broken for feeling this way. I became a psychiatric nurse practitioner after watching close friends go without the mental health care they needed, and after years as a trauma nurse witnessing how deeply emotional wounds can shape physical healing. Over time, I felt called to move beyond crisis response and toward long-term connection—supporting people as they work to find peace, stability, and themselves again.

There is no greater privilege than walking alongside individuals on their journey to improved mental health and well-being. My commitment to this work is both professional and personal—shaped by my brother’s experience and the lasting impact it had on our family. I am continually inspired by the strength and resilience of those I serve.

As a licensed nurse practitioner and board-certified in both family medicine and psychiatric and mental health, I specialize in treating a wide range of mental health issues for adults and children, including Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, Bipolar Disorder, OCD, and ADHD.

You may have become so used to pushing through depression, anxiety, or the effects of trauma that slowing down to acknowledge what you are carrying feels unfamiliar. Hiding painful emotions or setting them aside can help you get through the moment, but over time, it can also leave you feeling isolated, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. I understand from my own healing journey how difficult it can be to face painful experiences with compassion rather than avoidance. Therapy can help you explore where your struggles come from, understand how they affect your life and relationships, and begin finding ways to live that feel more authentic and aligned with what matters to you.

I prioritize understanding each individual as unique, establishing an alliance through authentic empathy, therapeutic rapport, and a nonjudgmental demeanor to assess, diagnose, and treat them in a holistic way.
