I believe in patient-centered care built on trust, collaboration, and respect for each individual's life story. I integrate medication management with therapeutic techniques and create a safe, inclusive space that is trauma-informed and aligned with each patient's values. I emphasize genuine connection and strive to help clients explore root causes of distress, not just manage symptoms. I begin with a comprehensive, collaborative assessment of each patient's medical, psychiatric, and psychosocial history, and I partner with patients to develop flexible, personalized treatment plans that support holistic mental health. My approach combines psychopharmacologic and psychotherapeutic interventions, continuously adjusting plans based on feedback and progress.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over a decade of experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I hold a Doctorate of Nursing Practice from the University of Colorado Denver, an MSN from Vanderbilt University, and a BS from Boston University.

Rather than focus primarily on illness or problems, my approach is to first evaluate patients comprehensively, then utilize what's learned from this to treat and empower them to make and then practice choices that lead to improved health and well-being, using an integrative model that recognizes that mental, physical, social, and spiritual health are one.

I am American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology certified and a fellow of the American Psychiatric Association. A skilled psychopharmacologist and psychotherapist, I have over 30 years' experience successfully helping people overcome a diverse range of emotional, psychiatric, and addiction challenges.

My residency was at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) in Little Rock, where I was trained in both psychotherapy and biological management of psychiatric challenges. Following residency training, I continued to work with UAMS and the State of Arkansas in research and program development, focusing on implementing and then teaching novel strengths-focused care for people with severe mental illness for the first 12 years of my career. Later, I moved with my wife and three children to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, and have since been in clinical practice and leadership roles in inpatient, outpatient, and telehealth psychiatric care settings.
