Mental health is fueled by more than thoughts –

It’s nurtured by the choices we make in every meal.

I treat a variety of conditions beyond those mentioned here, but these are the main areas I specialize in.

Do you struggle with anxiety and depression related issues:

  • Worries that are generalized and difficult to control?
  • Depressed mood most of the days of the week?

  • Feeling emotionally numb or detached from others?

About Me

I am dedicated to helping individuals facing mental and emotional challenges through a holistic approach that values nutrition, exercise, and rest. As a lifelong educator and advocate for nutritional psychiatry, I aim to promote mental wellness through informed lifestyle choices*.My career began in the culinary arts, where I uncovered the realities of food production and its impact on mental health. Observing the link between diet and rising rates of anxiety and depression inspired me to transition into healthcare. Starting as a registered nurse in medical-surgical, cardiovascular, neurology, and psychiatry, I eventually became a psychiatric nurse practitioner, focused on the gut-brain connection and the essential role of nutrition in mental health*.
