As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, I evaluate, diagnose and treat patients with mental health disorders. This includes medication management when appropriate.

Medication management involves the careful oversight of psychiatric medications to ensure they are effectively addressing your mental health needs. Our psychiatrist provides guidance on medication options, monitors side effects, and adjusts treatment plans as necessary. This collaborative approach aims to optimize your mental health treatment and support your overall recovery. MAT/MOUD can also be used to reduce cravings and withdrawals for substance use disorders.

We provide psychological care that includes close collaboration with prescribing providers to support effective medication management when medication is part of treatment. Our approach integrates psychotherapy with ongoing monitoring of symptoms, side effects, and overall functioning to ensure coordinated and comprehensive care. We work with clients to understand how medication fits within their broader treatment plan, while also focusing on evidence-based therapeutic strategies to address emotional, cognitive, and behavioral concerns. The goal is to optimize outcomes through a well-coordinated, team-based approach to mental health care.

Hampton is an independent city on the Virginia Peninsula, home to Langley Air Force Base and NASA Langley Research Center, two of the most significant federal installations in Virginia, and the city's mental health landscape is shaped by a large military and federal civilian workforce alongside a historically significant Black community centered on Hampton University, one of the nation's leading historically Black universities. The intersection of military mental health needs—trauma, PTSD, transition—with the academic and identity-related concerns of an HBCU community makes Hampton a city with a particularly diverse and meaningful therapy landscape. Sentara and Riverside Health System provide behavioral health services in the Hampton Roads area, and a private therapy sector serves both military-connected and civilian residents. Common therapy concerns include trauma and military transition, racial identity and community belonging, anxiety, depression, and the stresses of federal and classified employment.
