ABOUT ME

I have been in the field of nursing since 2010.  For 5 years, I worked as a trauma nurse in Austin, TX. That work helped me discover my speciality, and in 2015 I pursued my Masters in Nursing, completing my graduate work in 2017 to become a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). 

While working as a trauma nurse, I found joy in caring for people during the most stressful moments in their lives as well as in celebrating their victories. I have been honored to be the trusted caregiver for countless patients and their families over the last ten years.  

I have had the good fortune of working with compassionate, skilled

psychotherapists who inspire my work.

​

My goal is to help people thrive, not just cope.

While prescribing medication is likely to be part of most patient's treatment plans, it is important to note that there are legal restrictions on types of medications I am able to provide in a telehealth platform.

​

In accordance with the Ryan Haight Act, I am legally unable to prescribe controlled substances via telepsychiatry, such as stimulants (e.g. Adderall, Ritalin) or benzodiazepines (e.g. xanax, clonazepam).
