A Safe Space for Your Mental Wellness
Finding a mental health provider who understands and respects your identity is essential. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, you may face unique stressors related to discrimination, societal stigma, family dynamics, or the journey of exploring your identity. You deserve a provider who "gets it" without you having to educate them.
As a dually board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner, I am committed to providing a safe, inclusive, and affirming environment where you can openly discuss your mental health. My practice is a non-judgmental space where all identities, expressions, and relationships are respected.
My Approach to Affirming Care
My approach is grounded in respect and collaboration. We will work together to address your mental health goals in a way that honors your whole self.
- Knowledgeable & Inclusive Care: I have experience and training in LGBTQ+ mental health and understand the specific challenges and nuances of minority stress.
- A Focus on Your Goals: Whether you are seeking support for anxiety, depression, life transitions, or challenges related to your identity, our work will be guided by your personal goals.
- Collaborative Treatment: We will create a personalized plan together, which may include medication management, supportive psychotherapy, or both.
- A Welcoming Environment: My practice respects your pronouns, your name, and your identity, always.
