Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

I am a provider at out Martinsburg clinic who offers psychiatric services!

I have over a decade of experience in nursing and four years of practice as a Nurse Practitioner specializing in mental health care. I hold a Doctoral degree in Nursing Practice (DNP), which reflects a profound commitment to advancing the field of psychiatric nursing and providing exceptional care to patients dealing with mental health challenges.

For the past five years I have been providing comprehensive care in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I have demonstrated expertise in developing individualized treatment plans for patients, including medication management, psychotherapy, and patient education. I work collaboratively with other healthcare professionals, including psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and primary care providers, to ensure a multidisciplinary approach to patient care.

My approach to psychiatric care is rooted in empathy, active listening, and the belief in treating the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. I am particularly skilled at working with patients who have complex psychiatric histories, and I prioritize developing trustful relationships that empower patients to actively participate in their healing journey.

I am deeply passionate about destigmatizing mental health and advocating for greater access to care, particularly for underserved populations. I believe that mental health is just as important as physical health and I work tirelessly to ensure that all individuals, regardless of background or socioeconomic status, have access to the care they need.
