Having earned my Master's in Nursing (MSN) from Walden University, I'm a dedicated and experienced Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). My journey in nursing started as a Registered Nurse (RN), where I gained vital clinical experience across diverse settings like critical care and hospice. My passion for mental health led me to specialize in psychiatric nursing, fueled by a deep interest in the intricate interplay of biological, psychological, and social factors in psychiatric disorders. Rooted in holistic care, my approach centers around patient-centered mental health support. I offer therapeutic communication, individualized care planning, and evidence-based psychiatric medication management. My practice covers adults and adolescents navigating conditions such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and complex psychiatric issues. Beyond clinical work, I'm a committed advocate for mental health awareness, aiming to combat stigma around psychiatric disorders. I embody empathetic listening, respect, and collaboration in every patient interaction, empowering individuals to achieve their mental health goals.
