I have worked with patients from all walks of life with a variety of diagnoses and have gained invaluable experience along the way. I believe there are multiple approaches to addressing mental health concerns, and the same treatment doesn’t work for everyone. I believe in a uniquely tailored approach, with a passion for making this approach the new mental health care standard.
After joining the Navy in 2010, I spent my first few years as a Hospital Corpsman in Guam delivering babies in Labor and Delivery. After helping nurse my first premature infant back to health and handing him to his mother for the first time after two weeks in the NICU, she looked at me with tears streaming down her face and thanked for me for saving her son. It was then and there I knew that nursing was my calling. I sort of fell into the mental health field as an RN and have never looked back.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to learn from a diverse and comprehensive array of experiences. With a background encompassing inpatient care, residential settings, Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP), and outpatient care, I have encountered a wide range of psychiatric diagnoses. This experience has not only sharpened my clinical skills, but it has also cultivated an unparalleled understanding of the nuanced nature of mental health.
