About My Clients
I see patients 25 yrs and up and provide medication management. I do brief psychotherapy to work through issues. I spend time with the patient to understand the reasoning for the medication prescribed. It’s not just a med check. Initial visits are usually 90 minutes in length and followup visits are 30 to 45 minutes. I specialize in Depression, anxiety, and have extensive work with the geriatric and Alzheimer’s populations.
My Background and Approach
I have worked for over 25 years as a certified Advanced Practice Clinical Nurse Specialist in Adult Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing. While in private practice, I have had a collaborative practice arrangement with Dr. Adam Sky. I function as an Advanced Psychiatric Practice Nurse with prescriptive authority and have seen patients in hospital, office, and nursing home settings. I serve the adult population, age 25 and up. I am affiliated and have privileges at St. Mary’s Health Center in St. Louis. I look forward to serving your psychiatric and medication needs with compassion and skill – I want to take the time to truly understand your situation and offer you the tools to feel better and stay well.
