I am a Black, Non-Binary, Femme-presenting Queer person who centers kindness, mutual respect, transparency, and humility as the cornerstones of how I practice healthcare. I deeply believe that each person has inherent wisdom inside of themselves, and can access that resource when they are given a safe, curious space to process difficult experiences. My practice is especially affirming of Queer, Trans, and BIPOC people.
As a person with multiple marginalized identities, I deeply understand the harms that white supremacy, capitalism, and ableism have inflicted upon our psychological, emotional, and physical well-being. I actively practice advocacy, trauma-informed care, and anti-racism.
My practice style is very curious, non-judgmental, and heart-centered. I use empathy, deep listening skills, and reflection to connect with patients and allow them to share their stories in a safe, compassionate setting. Each person is unique, and I work collaboratively with patients to find a working treatment plan that suits their needs.
I am certified in Family Practice, Psychiatry, and Women’s Health/Gender-Related Care. I have 15 years of clinical experience as a nurse practitioner and have worked in multiple specialties including abortion care, gender-affirming care, pediatrics, primary care, and sexual/reproductive care.
I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults across an expansive range of mental health conditions. These include (but are not limited to): Anxiety, Autism, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, Body Image Issues, Depression, Eating Disorders, Gender Dysphoria, Insomnia, OCD, PMDD, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Schizophrenia, Social Anxiety, Substance Use Disorder.
It is important that patients I work with feel aligned with my approach, and for that reason, I kindly request that anyone interested in working with me schedule a free 15-minute discovery call to determine if working together is suitable for your needs.
I am currently available for virtual mental health services Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and I look forward to connecting with you!

I believe all people are inherently worthy of high-quality care, and I am especially passionate about "going to bat" for marginalized and vulnerable groups.
I compassionately listen with understanding and life experience that cannot be taught, and also uniquely utilize humor to put patients at ease.
I intentionally do not treat patients like a textbook, and want every patient to feel continuously seen, heard, and safe.
