If you're waking up with a sense of dread, carrying the heavy weight of past trauma, or feeling like your mind is running in circles, I want you to know something important: you are not alone. Many of the people I work with come in exhausted from trying to hold it all together. Anxiety steals your daily peace, depression drains your energy, or a life transition leaves you questioning who you are.

My goal is a space that's safe, affirming, and culturally sensitive, where you can let your guard down and begin to heal. As a board-certified psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner, I specialize in psychiatric assessments and evidence-based medication management, paired with compassionate, client-centered care. Medication is never one-size-fits-all, and it never replaces understanding your story.

It's a tool I use collaboratively, alongside getting to know who you actually are. I'm fully fluent in English and Spanish, and I'm passionate about culturally affirming mental health care for diverse and underserved communities in Champaign-Urbana.
