I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner specializing in ADHD, depression, anxiety, and transgender mental health. I believe meaningful mental healthcare is more than just a pill. You want someone who’ll talk through your concerns, listen to your needs, and develop a treatment plan tailored to you. Alongside medication, I focus on patient education, therapy, and coaching. If you are looking for holistic and thoughtful care, I would love to meet you.
As someone with ADHD, anxiety, and depression myself, I’m especially passionate about helping others who struggle and live with these issues. Prior to my own practice, I successfully treated hundreds of adults with ADHD at a startup called Ahead. My patients included tech professionals, students, parents, and artists from all over California.
During my residency at San Francisco’s VA Medical Center, I specialized in the unique mental health needs of transgender veterans. At Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital, I was a psychiatric nurse focused on those with limited access to care including inmates and unhoused communities.
