About

Almost 20 years experience in the field of nursing. I specialize in psychiatric care and mental health nursing, offering therapy and medication management for patients of all ages. My work focuses on the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of conditions such as autism, ADHD, personality and mood disorders, anxiety, and substance misuse, through both telehealth and in-office appointments. Autism, ADHD & borderline personality disorder are my top 3 specialities. However, I also enjoy and have a lot of experience with anxiety disorders (including OCD, panic d/o illness anxiety d/o), trauma, relationship issues, depression and medication management that includes holistic and “outside of the box” treatment options. Dual board-certified as a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner (primary care) and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), I am committed to providing compassionate, inclusive care to neurodiverse individuals and the LGBTQ community. My goal is to bridge the gap in adult mental health services for individuals with developmental and cognitive disorders while fostering holistic approaches to mental health treatment. I opened my own private practice clinic (Balance Your Life) in midtown Little Rock 9/1/2025 to be able to provide the specialized, patient-focused and shared-decision-making model of care that I am proud to offer. I truly care about each of my patients and will do everything that I can to help improve your quality of life. Www.balance-life.net.
