ABOUT

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a strong interest in helping individuals reach their mental healthcare goals. As a nurse for the past 14 years, I've worked in a variety of settings including primary care clinics, hospitals, and mental healthcare facilities. Through each workplace, I often observed patients' mental healthcare needs went unmet in the medical setting. It encouraged me to pursue an advanced degree in psychiatry so that I could help those in our community feel heard and assist in addressing their mental health concerns in order to live a better of quality life.

As an Indiana University graduate, I am trained to evaluate patients, diagnose mental health conditions, and prescribe as well as manage medications. By joining Accentus, I am excited to offer medication management services, as well as alternative therapies for those who are unsuccessful with traditional treatments, such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). I will be available in the Avon, IN office Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday between the hours of 7:30 am to 6:00 pm. I am eager to meet and work with you on your mental wellness journey to better understand and manage your needs!
