A Montana native, she loves traveling the world with her husband and three children—experiences that reinforce her belief in balance, connection, and resilience.

Her integrative approach gives patients more options for treatment, incorporating both conventional psychiatry and natural or functional interventions when appropriate. This tailored blend empowers patients to reclaim balance and thrive in every area of life.
