As a board-certified Nurse Practitioner in both Psychiatric Mental Health and Family Practice, I offer holistic, compassionate care that honors the deep connection between the mind and body. 

With over 25 years of experience across diverse healthcare settings—including K–12 schools, college health centers, home care, and intensive care units—I understand the unique challenges that arise during life’s most critical moments.

I specialize in supporting individuals and families through major transitions such as becoming a parent, navigating adolescence or young adulthood, entering the workforce, coping with illness or loss, and facing end-of-life realities. Whether you're a parent seeking support, a student facing uncertainty, or someone adjusting to a recent diagnosis, I'm here to help you feel grounded, heard, and empowered.

My approach is empathetic, attentive, and goal-oriented. I offer both talk therapy and medication management to help guide you toward meaningful, transformative healing.

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Southern California, a certification as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner from Johns Hopkins University, and a Doctorate in Nursing Practice from the University of Colorado.

A little more about me—I was born and raised in Pasadena, California. I'm a wife, mom of three, sister, and proud aunt. I'm deeply committed to personal growth and helping others build from within. When we nurture self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and resilience, we create space for stronger relationships and a more fulfilling life. These are tools we all deserve in our toolbox.
