My Story
I founded Zen Mind Mental Health to offer an alternative to the rushed, volume-driven care so common in traditional clinics. My vision is to create a sanctuary where you are genuinely heard and cared for. Our model is designed to increase access to mental health services while setting a new standard for truly individualized, high-quality care.
I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over a decade of clinical experience. I earned my graduate degree from the University of Nevada, Reno, where I graduated summa cum laude and was honored with the Dean’s Award for outstanding performance.

In a field where advanced specialization is paramount, I completed a formal psychiatry residency at the Reno VA Medical Center. This is an achievement held by less than 3% of psychiatric nurse practitioners nationwide. This training equipped me with an expert clinical lens and a level of diagnostic precision that is uncommon in the field.
My background in Emergency Medicine and my years working with Veterans with combat-related PTSD have shaped my calm, focused approach to complex crises. I bring this steady presence and dedication to every patient relationship.
