About this provider

Clients I Work With

I work with teens 13 and older and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and sleep disturbances, including those managing more than one at once. If you’ve been quietly carrying this for a while and are ready for someone who will listen and work through it with you, you’re in the right place.

Approach

My work is grounded in shared decision-making. You know your life and your body; I bring the clinical expertise, and we build your treatment plan together rather than me handing you one. As a psychiatric provider, I offer thorough evaluations and medication management, paired with supportive therapy drawn from CBT, mindfulness, and solution-focused approaches. Sessions are unhurried and direct, you can expect honest conversation, clear explanations of your options, and space to ask questions. My goal is for you to leave each visit understanding what we’re doing and why, and to feel like a partner in your own care, not a passenger.

Beliefs & Lived Experience

My work is shaped by more than a decade in nursing before I became a psychiatric provider. For years I had the privilege of listening and providing emotional support to people during some of the hardest moments of their lives. That taught me how much being heard is often the first step toward healing and wellness. I believe mental health care should be collaborative, honest, and free of judgment, and that no concern is too small to bring to the table.

More About My Practice

Renewed Hope & Wellness is a virtual psychiatric practice. Prescribing scope varies by state, so we’ll talk through what I can offer based on where you live during your first visit. Questions about insurance, payment, or whether we’re a good fit are always welcome before you book.
