Not sure whether your specific plan is covered. My office can help you verify your behavioral health benefits before your first visit.

Anxiety and depression, women's and maternal mental health, perinatal and postpartum care, ADHD evaluation and treatment, and child and adolescent mental health. My approach investigates root causes rather than only managing surface symptoms.

My practice follows the standards of advanced practice psychiatric nursing set by the American Psychiatric Nurses Association and the American Nurses Credentialing Center.

My whole-person approach to mental wellness was featured nationally on The Kelly Clarkson Show. I bring that same care, the kind that treats you as a whole person rather than a checklist of symptoms, to every virtual visit.

If you are ready to begin. Reserve your virtual visit and complete a paperless intake. New patients in Washington DC are welcome.
