Welcome! I'm a dedicated healthcare professional with a rich background in hospice, critical care, inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, committed to providing compassionate support and expert medical attention to those in need. My journey began in neuro ICU, where I honed my skills in caring for critically ill patients, ensuring they received the best possible care during challenging times. I
My experience extends to the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic, where I played a vital role as a Vaccine Nurse and Staff RN in COVID ICU. There, I was responsible for administering vaccines, monitoring patient recovery, and providing critical care to those battling the virus.
Transitioning to psychiatry, I embraced the role of guiding families and patients through mental health challenges, offering not only medication management but also emotional support. As a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, I am always focused on delivering patient-centered care that aligns with our shared values of dignity and respect.
I'm passionate about educating both my team and patients' families on health matters in an understandable way. Whether it's managing complex health conditions or supporting mental wellness at Green Pastures Mental Care, my goal is to ensure every individual feels heard, cared for, and well-informed.
Your health and peace of mind is my top priorities. Let's navigate your healthcare journey together with empathy, expertise, and unwavering support.
TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY:
I support my clients with depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bipolar disorder and trauma in medication management where appropriate, and supportive therapy to help them find their way forward. I am warm, empathetic and solution focused. I use my training to educate you on available options so you can make informed decisions about your care. As my client, you can expect a listening ear, empathy, and a no-judgment zone while facilitating your healing and ultimately, improving your mental wellness and being.
