About Mercy
Hi there! I'm a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, and I'm here to help you find balance and feel more like yourself again.
With over 20 years of healthcare experience, I know that healing often takes more than one path. Some of my clients benefit most from therapy; others from the right medication support—and many from a combination of both. So, I offer compassionate care that includes therapy and safe psychiatric medications tailored to your needs.
Many of my clients find relief with antidepressants, mood stabilizers, and non-stimulant options for anxiety, attention, depression, sleep, substance misuse and overall well-being, and I prescribe a wide range of these safe medications, except a few controlled medications, noted toward the end.
I work with adults, and my goal is to offer care that’s respectful, collaborative, and easy to understand—so you can make confident choices about your mental health.
Let’s begin your path to wellness.
