About

We listen, act, and transform

At Mind You Wellness, I offer psychiatric care that is rooted in honesty, cultural awareness, and whole-person healing. As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I recognize that many people carry unacknowledged emotional and psychological trauma—from childhood dynamics to everyday microaggressions—and that these experiences shape how we show up in our lives and relationships. My role is to help you explore those patterns with curiosity, not judgment. I take a trauma-informed approach that honors your lived experience and the strength it takes to seek support. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, burnout, or identity-based stress, my goal is to help you move toward a life where you feel aligned, empowered, and mentally well—not just functioning, but thriving. I believe in treating the whole person. This may include medications and supplements, boundary work, lifestyle changes, and intentional conversations about what safety, rest, and joy look like for you. I use straightforward communication because clarity builds trust—and because I respect your time and your process. As a provider, I create space for clients to tell the truth about how they're feeling, even when it’s uncomfortable. If you’ve ever felt dismissed, rushed, or misunderstood in healthcare settings, this is your space to be heard. Healing doesn’t happen in a vacuum—it happens in relationship. Let’s start where you are.
