About Dawn
As a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience as an ICU Registered Nurse and a Master’s degree in Nursing Education, I bring a unique, integrative approach to mental health care. My background in critical care has equipped me with advanced clinical judgment, crisis management skills, and a deep understanding of the mind-body connection, particularly in high-stress and trauma-informed settings. With a foundation in education, I am also passionate about empowering patients and peers through knowledge, advocacy, and collaborative care. I strive to deliver compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric treatment that honors the complexity of each individual’s mental and physical health journey.
