I am a good listener, and emphatic, nonjudgmental provider. I truly care about my patients and will go the extra mile to make sure they are properly cared for.
I have over 15 years of experience in treating depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. I understand that your care involves a collaborative approach, and I will work with your primary care provider to ensure that your behavioral health is part of your overall care.
Anxiety, depression, or the effects of trauma can leave you feeling unlike yourself. You may be getting through the day while privately dealing with constant worry, low mood, emotional exhaustion, or reactions that feel difficult to control. When those feelings continue, it can be hard to see what might actually help. I believe care should begin with understanding what you are experiencing and finding an approach that makes sense for your needs, so you can begin to feel more steady and better equipped to move forward.
You may be feeling overwhelmed by ongoing anxiety, mood changes, or experiences that have been difficult to fully process. You might also be navigating concerns about your child, noticing struggles that are hard to understand or patterns that don’t seem to shift—such as intense emotional responses, withdrawal, or a sense of disconnection. This uncertainty can feel exhausting, especially when things appear “fine” on the outside but feel very different internally. With the right support, it is possible to gain insight into these patterns and move toward a more stable, hopeful way forward.
I chose a career in mental health care because I have seen firsthand the profound impact that treatment can have—not just on individuals, but also on their families and communities. I am inspired by the opportunity to help clients overcome challenges, achieve their goals, and become the best version of themselves. My approach is holistic, incorporating both medication management and non-pharmacological strategies to provide comprehensive care tailored to each person’s unique needs.
Depression can leave you feeling emotionally flat—like you’re moving through life on autopilot, disconnected from joy and unsure how to find your way back to yourself. Anxiety often walks hand in hand with it, keeping your nervous system on high alert, while past trauma quietly informs how safe you feel in your own body. These layers can be hard to untangle alone. What drew me to this work—and continues to inspire me—is the brain’s capacity to adapt and heal. Neuroplasticity reminds us that change isn’t just possible; it’s how we’re built.
Growing up, I witnessed the importance of understanding and supporting loved ones through difficult times, which sparked my desire to help others navigate their struggles. What continues to inspire me in this profession is the ever-changing nature of the world. As society evolves, so do the mental health needs of individuals, offering me endless opportunities to learn, grow, and adapt my approach to better support those I work with.
I specialize in working with those facing treatment-resistant major depression, mood disorders, anxiety, ADHD, and women’s mental health disorders, including during the perinatal and postpartum phases.
Depression, anxiety, and the effects of trauma can change the way you feel from one day to the next. You may feel emotionally drained, constantly on edge, or frustrated that it has become harder to manage things that once felt more manageable. When those struggles continue, knowing what kind of treatment could help can feel like another source of uncertainty. I believe care should start with understanding what you are experiencing and working together to find a treatment plan that supports your needs and goals.
Living with depression, anxiety, or bipolar disorder can affect how you feel, think, and manage daily life. You or your child may be struggling with changes in mood, persistent worry, or emotions that feel difficult to manage. When these challenges continue, it can be frustrating to feel like the right help is out of reach. I believe everyone deserves access to quality mental health care and the opportunity to better understand what they are experiencing, find treatment that meets their needs, and work toward greater stability and well-being.
