Hometown: Virginia, Minnesota
Practice philosophy: I enjoy listening to my patients and learning from them. I work in an integrated behavioral health care position where I will be treating patients in partnership with their primary care providers. Patients will be referred to me for short-term behavioral health management. A diagnostic assessment will be completed to establish a diagnosis and plan of care. This treatment plan will be initiated over a maximum of three visits, and upon stabilization, patients will return to the care of their primary care provider.
One of the challenges of this career is: Every day is different because patients present with situations that are unique to them. After learning about your experiences, I discuss evidence-based treatments and collaborate with you to select the best treatment options. Even though you may encounter struggles along your journey through mental health treatment, it is fulfilling seeing patients improve, overcome their challenges and ultimately succeed in their lives.
The best health advice I've received: Get some fresh air! It improves your mood and benefits your overall well-being.
I'm most proud of: Choosing the nursing profession as my second career.
