About Me
I’m thrilled to share a bit about myself and why I’m deeply passionate about mental health. With more than ten years of varied nursing experience, I’ve continually grown in my understanding of patient care. My ongoing eagerness for knowledge propelled me to pursue advanced education in the field. It was during my master’s program that my passion for mental health truly ignited, shaping my professional trajectory. My multifaceted nursing background has enriched my approach to care, allowing me to tailor treatments to the individual needs of each patient.
I firmly believe in a holistic approach to mental health care. My conviction stems from recognizing the intricate interplay between mental well-being and various facets of life, including physical health, relationships, and environmental influences. This philosophy is encapsulated in my belief that ‘Health is more than a prescription.’ In my practice, I prioritize meaningful patient-provider relationships, rejecting the notion of rushed appointments. Every individual deserves dedicated time and attention, fostering a collaborative journey towards optimal wellness. While medications play a crucial role in mental health management, I advocate for a comprehensive approach that acknowledges the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. As a holistic provider, I am committed to empowering my patients to achieve holistic wellness.
