For Relationship Centered Psychiatric Care

Work With Me

My Mission

In my business, I serve as a health-influencing artist who practices at the intersection of psychiatry and nursing science. I believe individuals have the right to do or think what they want without hindrance and without infringing on the rights of anyone else. That includes supporting client choices in their own care. Every individual has the potential for resilience and the capacity to change.

It is worth the time we spend together identifying your strengths & challenges, and then creating a "pivot plan" to enhance not just your life but the lives of those who matter most to you.

“I believe everyone has the capacity for resilience and change.”

Meet the Practitioner

Based in Eugene, Oregon, I find meaning in passive & active art, nature, movement, social inquiry and exchange, and caring for my spouse, plants, and pit bull.

What I Do For You

Relationship-centered psychiatric care in the assessment, diagnosis, and medication management of:

anxiety | depression | mood disorders | schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorders | substance use disorders | OCD | effects of trauma | ADHD

I have specialized hormonal management expertise, meaning I can help manage the mental health effects of PMDD, PCOS/PMOS, perinatal, postpartum, PLUS peri- and post-menopausal hormonal transitions. With this, I specialize in midlife cognitive functioning concerns.

Alongside medication, I help develop individualized client-wellness plans focusing on lifestyle medicine, neuroaesthetics, and social prescribing.

If you are interested in deprescribing, safely tapering off psychiatric medications and replacing them with alternative• mental health and wellbeing strategies, let’s do that!

Request A Consultation

My practice welcomes people of all backgrounds and identities. If it seems like the right fit, reach out for a consultation, and we’ll work together to make your health manageable.

Through private, personalized care via telemedicine and in-person appointments, I can help you. I accept private-pay clients who are physically located in Oregon. Check back, as I will soon be contracted with most commercial insurance plans in Oregon. I do not contract with OHP at this time.

AltaPoint Care prescribing policies will be reviewed with each patient and appropriately individualized. Benzodiazepines (i.e. Xanax/alprazolam, Ativan/lorazepam, etc. ) are not used in long-term treatment plans.
