About

Hello! I'm a Nurse Practitioner dedicated to making a positive impact on the health and well-being of my community. With years of experience and a genuine passion for healthcare, I’ve had the opportunity to lead several impactful projects and initiatives that contribute to better patient outcomes.

Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with policymakers, presenting at national conferences, and receiving accolades, including a proclamation from the Mayor during Nurse Practitioner’s Week. My focus has been on integrating mental and physical health care, improving primary care outcomes, and addressing key public health issues like childhood obesity, mental health, and chronic disease management.

I specialize in family medicine, psychiatry, mental health, weight loss, and general practice, treating conditions like anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, ADHD, schizophrenia, eating disorders, and addiction. I also provide care for chronic conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, asthma, and insomnia, while addressing complex issues like OCD, personality disorders, and mood disorders.

In my practice, I use a variety of evidence-based treatment methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based therapy, trauma-focused therapy, medication management, and lifestyle modifications. I believe in a holistic approach to health that empowers patients to take control of their well-being through tailored, compassionate care.

I am deeply committed to continuous learning and sharing knowledge, knowing that every effort helps build healthier, more resilient communities. I appreciate you taking the time to learn about my work, and I look forward to collaborating with you to create a healthier future.
