I believe therapy and psychiatric care should feel human, not clinical, rushed, or impersonal. My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, respected, and supported from the very first conversation. I take time to understand your story, your values, and what you want your life to look like, not just your symptoms.

I bring over a decade of experience working in mental health and addiction, and I use a balanced approach that blends evidence-based treatment with compassion and real connection. I do not believe in one-size-fits-all care. Your treatment is collaborative, flexible, and designed to support long-term growth, not just short-term relief.

Above all, you should know that you will not be treated like a diagnosis. You will be treated like a person.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 15 years of experience working in mental health, with a primary focus on women’s mental health. I support women navigating depression, anxiety, burnout, and life transitions, especially those who appear high-functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed or emotionally exhausted internally.

I believe deeply in the power of words and how they shape our mental and emotional well-being. My work is rooted in speaking life, clarity, and hope into spaces where patients may feel discouraged or stuck. I work with all adults who are seeking thoughtful, intentional, holistic care.

I know how heavy life can feel when you’re carrying pain, uncertainty, or self-doubt. But I believe, as a wise old wizard once said, “Happiness can be found even in the darkest of places, if one only remembers to turn on the light.” My role is to help you find that light again. I work with Gen Z and Millennial adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and more. Through integrative, culturally responsive care, I combine evidence-based psychiatry with holistic strategies to help you feel heard, supported, and empowered to create a life that aligns with your true self.

I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) beginning my career as an ER nurse in 2007. I specialize in helping adults and teens with ADHD understand their symptoms, improve focus and organization, and build confidence through ADHD evaluations and medication management.

Many of my clients are busy professionals, parents, and students who struggle with inattention, restlessness, or feeling “stuck.” My goal is to help you develop clarity, structure, and balance so you can feel more in control of your life. I also treat anxiety, depression, and mood disorders, which often overlap with ADHD, using an integrated and evidence-based approach.

I provide telehealth psychiatric care throughout California — including Sacramento, Folsom, Roseville, the Bay Area, Modesto, Fresno, and Southern California — through Grace Mental Health Resources, offering accessible, compassionate, and individualized treatment from the comfort of your home.
