With over 18 years of dedicated service in healthcare, my journey has shaped a robust foundation in psychiatric care. Starting as a paramedic, I gained vital insights into emergency medical responses, which laid the groundwork for my transition to nursing and supervising roles. Each position deepened my understanding of patient-centered care. Pursuing excellence, I graduated with honors from Vanderbilt University's renowned Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner Program. This advanced education equipped me with cutting-edge knowledge to navigate complex psychiatric needs empathetically. Board certified in Psychiatry, I have extensive experience across various settings such as inpatient, outpatient, and community mental health.
These roles have honed my skills in conducting initial psychiatric evaluations and crafting tailored treatment strategies. My approach evolves with each interaction, ensuring care remains relevant and impactful. This cumulative expertise guarantees not only a comprehensive understanding of mental health but also a commitment to nurturing each individual's unique path to wellness through informed, compassionate support.
