About

Hi there! My name is Sam. I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with over 7 years of experience in the mental health field. I'm dedicated to providing comprehensive mental health care for all ages. I enjoy working with a diverse range of patients. My practice experience includes community mental health, private practice, and correctional settings.

 

I believe in creating a safe and understanding environment where mental health is openly discussed without stigma. Together, we can develop treatment plans tailored to your individual needs. I promote self-care and empower my patients to achieve optimal mental and emotional health.

 

Throughout my career, I've worked collaboratively with interdisciplinary teams to ensure the highest standard of care. Whether dealing with crisis intervention, patient education, or medication management, my goal is to support you every step of the way. Let's work together towards a healthier, happier you.


TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY:

 

I believe in compassionate, holistic care for mental health. Each person is unique, so I focus on tailored treatment plans that combine psychotherapy, medication management, and lifestyle changes. I prioritize the mind-body connection, guiding my patients toward overall well-being. Education is key; I empower patients and their families to make informed choices about their care. I strive to create a supportive environment where patients feel safe and understood. Collaboration with interdisciplinary teams and community resources enhances our approach. Together, we can break the stigma of mental health and promote self-care. My goal is to help each patient achieve their best mental and emotional health.
