I am a board certified Adult Gerontologic Acute Care Nurse Practitioner from the University of South Alabama. I have experience as a primary care provider managing acute and chronic conditions. Additionally, I have 11 years experience as a Registered Nurse in the acute care setting (most of my time being spent in critical care particularly ICU). I have volunteer experience in a free clinic for the underserved. In all of these settings I have cared for patients with many mental health diagnoses. I believe in making mental health services available to all patients and removing barriers to access. I strive to build a therapeutic relationship with each client using a holistic approach.
I am a mom of 3, and in my free time I enjoy spending time outdoors, I love reading, exercise, and spending time with family and friends. I enjoy the beach and mountains, and love to venture into antique stores.
