Psychiatry near Matthews, NC

Biography: From a very young age, I knew I wanted a career that allowed me to help people. Medicine was a perfect choice. As I continued my education, I found a passion for helping people with mental illness. I find this field rewarding and see the importance of quality mental health care. \n I want my patients to know that I strive to be easy to communicate with; I want each patient to be comfortable sharing their concerns with me and asking their questions. Each of my patients should have a say in their treatment regimen, as being an active participant in their treatment leads to more successful outcomes. \n My husband and I have a son and a daughter who keep us busy. We try to go to their games and activities whenever we can. We also enjoy camping together and spending time with our animals. When I have time to myself, I enjoy reading all types of books, especially those that leave you on edge and eagerly waiting for the next plot twist.

Care Philosophy: Talkspace partners with care providers who find satisfaction in providing therapy in a way that prioritizes the clients convenience and preferences. Because all therapy takes place virtually, through messaging, live virtual sessions, or both, providers can communicate more frequently and casually in comparison to traditional face-to-face therapy. Talkspace treatment methods are supported by scientific research and are committed to non-judgmental care that is inclusive and respectful of cultural and other identities. Talkspace patients are matched with the best provider for them based on their needs and availability during the registration process. Once matched with a provider, patients may change at any time, and may contact support to request a specific provider. *The above is attributed to Talkspace and not the provider.*
