Meet Your Provider

I am a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with nearly 5 years of licensure, in addition to nearly a decade of experience in diverse psychiatric & behavioral health services.

As an Iowa native and someone who feels so passionately about mental health, I am beyond excited to foster accessible care through telepsychiatry services across the states of Iowa, Minnesota, and New York. At this time, I provide services in Iowa, Minnesota, and New York via telepsychiatry and in person contracted services in the New York City Metro.

Adept in crisis intervention, care coordination, psychopharmacology, collaborative treatment, interdisciplinary team management. Demonstrated clinical acumen, cultural sensitivity, & ability to respond effectively to acute & complex mental health needs. Recognized for professionalism, thoroughness, & genuine compassion.

Approach is trauma-informed, patient-centered, & inclusive of psychosocial determinants of health. My treatment approach utilizes aspects of CBT, complementary therapies, and the mindset that medication is a tool, not the solution.

I view patient care as a collaborative venture and it would be my privilege to join you in your pursuit of mental wellness.

Specific areas of clinical interest include innovative treatment approaches, & contributing to systems that prioritize addressing historically neglected aspects of patient care, and specific to severe-persistent mental illness. Additionally, those with intellectual disabilities, the LGBTQIA+ health, foster-care/adoption, adverse childhood experiences, traumatic brain injuries, acute/crisis care, peri-partum, and chronic persistent mental illness.

In summation, I am passionate about advancing mental health access, equity, and quality across the lifespan.
