My Journey to Emerged
Personal Journey
My family and I have been affected by addiction and mental health issues. My journey drives my passion for psychiatric care. I believe that everyone deserves an opportunity to heal and lead fulfilling lives. I have witnessed the transformational effects of mental health treatment not only in my own life but also in the lives of family and friends who have navigated their addiction and mental health challenges.
My Professional Background
I hold a Doctorate of Public Health with a concentration in Global Health from the University of Texas Health Science Center and a Master of Science degree as a Family Nurse Practitioner from Texas Woman's University. I also completed my Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner program at Wilkes University. My diverse career includes nearly two decades in leadership positions within a global Fortune 500 company. I worked alongside professionals and families from various backgrounds across the United States and internationally. My extensive training and experience uniquely equip me to understand the complex dynamics of mental health and the impact it has on individuals, families, and workplaces. I am certified in Brainsway Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy (TMS), Safe 5 Scrum Master, and Human Performance Improvement Practitioner.
If you’re ready to take the first step toward positive change or if you have any questions about my services, please feel free to reach out. I’m here to help you navigate your path to mental wellness and a fulfilling life. Thank you for considering me as part of your healthcare journey. I look forward to working with you!
