I am passionate about mental health. I enjoy finding creative ways to improve mental wellness that align with your vision of treatment. My background is working in a pediatric hospital for 18 years which helps me to be patient, supportive, and open-minded. I graduated from Nova Southeastern University in 2023 with my Masters in Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing.

I approach my work with warmth, energy, and an open mind, creating a therapeutic space where clients can feel safe, supported, and understood. With over 15 years of nursing experience, I combine clinical expertise with genuine compassion to guide individuals through challenges such as anxiety, depression, and ADHD. My mission is to foster trust, collaboration, and meaningful progress for every client who walks through my door.

As a Stanford-trained psychiatrist, I work closely with Dr. Sethi at Metabolic Psychiatry Labs (MPL) to manage serious mental illness conditions including bipolar, depression, binge eating disorder, and psychosis. While I am trained in multiple types of psychotherapy, including CBT, psychodynamic, DBT, ACT, and Internal Family Systems. I believe in treating the root cause of mental illness. I provide supportive therapy around your metabolic and psychiatric conditions using different therapeutic approaches.
