Hi there, I'm Melissa!

I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner specializing in adult psychiatry. I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and brief therapy online. I'm passionate about making mental health care accessible through telepsychiatry.

My focus

I work with adults facing anxiety, ADHD, depression, grief, OCD, and PTSD. My background emphasizes how community adversities affect social, work, and family dynamics, helping me understand the broader context of your challenges.

My approach

I provide brief supportive psychotherapy as a foundation for emotional support, encouragement, and validation during difficult life challenges. I actively listen to you discuss your feelings, concerns, and problems in a safe, non-judgmental environment.
