I use humor when appropriate and don't assign random "homework" just because in therapy - I do however recommend activities, books, and podcasts for use in between sessions when appropriate and specific to a client's goals.

I am a client-centered therapist but I do not sit in silence - I am active and will "be with you" in whatever you bring to therapy. I won't share much about myself, but I promise to be human with you. We will work toward what is most important to you

Active, compassionate, curious, warm and real. My clients have frequently shared that they can tell I love my career and this is the absolute truth.

want to get the root of why they are struggling and feeling the way they are, and take action at the same time. I work best with people who are engaged and ready to get the most out of therapy. I work well with people who are new to therapy.

I love the process of watching someon become more of themselves. I became a Psych NP because I wanted to provide holistic mental healthcare.

I have a Doberman named Lady who joins virtual sessions from time to time.

Teletherapy sessions are easily accessible given the time restraints of work, childcare, and traffic. I practice integrative psychiatric which means I treat using conventional medications, supplements, psychotherapy, and lifestyle changes.
