PATIENT PORTAL

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree from the University of Washington. Before becoming a nurse practitioner, I spent 15 years as a nurse at Seattle’s Harborview Medical Center in both medical and psychiatric settings. Through this work, I have had the privilege of working with individuals from many educational, spiritual, socioeconomic, and cultural backgrounds, which has profoundly influenced my practice. I strive to create an inclusive environment where all my clients receive respectful, high-quality care. I am particularly passionate about serving fellow members of the LGBTQIA+ community and people of color.

​

My approach as a psychiatric provider is rooted in harm reduction, Health at Every Size (HAES), and a blend of humanistic and psychoanalytic principles. Treatment options I offer may include medication management, brief supportive therapy, behavior change counseling, health education, and/or referrals.

​

I aim to create a space where you feel empowered to make informed decisions regarding your care. You are the expert on your own life. I look forward to creating a collaborative partnership with you in which we work together to understand and realize your goals.

​

Outside of my practice, I enjoy doing crafts, spending time with my cats and chosen family, and spending time outside.
