What I'm looking for

I am seeking a supportive PMHNP role providing outpatient and/or integrated behavioral health care across the lifespan, with opportunities for mentoring and professional growth.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and certified case manager with broad clinical experience in outpatient, inpatient, and care-management settings. I have provided assessments, medication management, psychotherapy, crisis intervention, and care coordination for children, adults, and geriatric populations while addressing social determinants of health.

My background includes roles in behavioral health nursing and case management for Medicaid, Medicare-Medicaid dual-eligible, federal employee, and qualified health plan members, and recent clinical training as a PMHNP student. I seek a supportive environment to continue growing as a PMHNP and to deliver patient-centered, evidence-based behavioral health care across the lifespan.
