About me
Nice to meet you!
I'm a board certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with over 20 years experience in nursing & behavioral health, graduate training in Educational Psychology, and experience supporting neurodiverse populations. I provide integrative psychiatric services which combines evidence-based research with nutritional psychiatry, attention to the gut - brain connection, natural therapeutics, plant medicine, and complementary/ alternative modalities. My intention is to honor your desire for holistic care that supports your social, emotional, physical, and spiritual wellbeing.
Clients want to be treated as equal partners in their healthcare. We work together to identify your needs, desired outcomes, and develop the right treatment interventions for you. There is no 'one size fits all' treatment or medication; your comfort, belief and trust in the plan of care is paramount to the healing process.
Patients seeking trauma focused psychotherapy, supplement recommendations and/ or medication management, neuro-feedback, or executive skills function training can find what they're looking for at Dynamic Minds. Specialty areas include autoimmune associated mental health conditions, ADHD/ rejection sensitivity dysphoria, traumatic stress disorders, and psychedelic assisted psychotherapy (preparation and integration).
