Extensive Background in Mental Health & Medical Nursing
As a board-certified PMHNP, I bring a strong foundation in psychiatric care, complemented by over 20 years of experience in mental health, medical nursing, and clinical social work.
My background includes:
Board-Certified PMHNP | Trained in comprehensive psychiatric assessments, medication management, and evidence-based treatment for major depressive disorder, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and other mental health conditions.
- Psychiatric Nursing (7 years): Hands-on experience in inpatient and outpatient mental health settings, crisis intervention, and psychopharmacology.
- Cardiology & Neurology Nursing (4 years): Managing complex medical conditions and collaborating within interdisciplinary teams to support holistic patient care.
- Clinical Social Work (12 years): Providing trauma-informed therapy, case management, and advocacy for children and families in the child welfare system.
My unique combination of psychiatric, medical, and social work experience allows me to approach mental health care holistically, addressing both medical and psychosocial needs. Passionate about expanding mental health access, I am eager to apply my skills in direct patient care, telehealth, or collaborative psychiatric settings.
