About Me
It all begins with an idea.
I was born and raised in Indiana, where my nursing journey first began. I earned both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Nursing from the University of Southern Indiana. After spending 24 years in the Midwest, I moved to Dallas, Texas, where I completed my master’s training over three years. Following that, I fulfilled one of my lifelong dreams by relocating to Los Angeles, California.
Today, I still call California home, where I live with my two dogs, Oliver and Pablo. In my free time, I enjoy staying active through fitness, yoga, and meditation. I also love volunteering at my local animal shelter, exploring new restaurants, attending live music events, playing pickleball, and watching films.
What makes me a good fit?
It all begins with an idea.
My clinical experience includes working with individuals experiencing Sleep difficulties, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia, Anger Management, and more. Please consult with me if you feel you have different concerns.
I have specialized training in providing culturally sensitive care for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities. My goal is to create a supportive, collaborative space where each treatment plan is tailored to your unique needs—helping you achieve lasting, meaningful improvement in your mental health and overall well-being.
We’ll spend time getting to know you—your background, goals, and what brings you to care—so we can develop an individualized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. Together, we’ll begin building a therapeutic partnership focused on achieving lasting change and optimal mental well-being.
What makes me different than other providers?
It all begins with an idea.
If you are looking for a provider who is approachable, easy to talk to, and creates a comfortable environment where you can feel heard and understood, I may be a good fit for your care. From the beginning of our work together, my goal is to ensure that you feel genuinely supported, valued, and actively involved in your treatment journey.
I provide concierge psychiatric care, which allows for a more accessible and personalized approach to treatment. I believe that having consistent access to support can be an important part of feeling connected and cared for throughout the treatment process. My goal is to help you feel confident that you have a provider who is available when you need guidance and support.
My approach is collaborative and individualized. I believe effective treatment involves understanding the whole person—not simply addressing symptoms. I integrate medication management, psychotherapy, and holistic wellness strategies to support meaningful and lasting improvements in mental health and overall well-being.
What sets my approach apart is the emphasis I place on developing a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, openness, and collaboration. I want you to feel comfortable sharing your experiences, challenges, and goals while knowing that your concerns are taken seriously. Together, we can create a treatment plan that aligns with your needs and supports your journey toward improved mental health.
