Psychiatric care that respects your time, your story, and your goals.
Treatment conducted in collaboration, with guidance to meet your needs.
Medication management focused on your core symptoms, with clear rationales.
Prioritizing first-line treatment, while recognizing the need for more complex options when necessary.
My background includes over 20 years of clinical care as a registered nurse and later as a psychiatric nurse practitioner. I also have experience as a naturalist working within the state park system.
I studied environmental sciences and chemistry at Eastern Kentucky University before entering healthcare.
While medications are prescribed when necessary, I also emphasize lifestyle and environmental factors to support meaningful, lasting improvement.
