I’ve taken the ADHD Care Pledge to support safe and thoughtful stimulant use

Hello, nice to meet you! I’m Emily, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with 20 years of nursing experience. I provide care to clients across Hawaii and Idaho, specializing in ADHD, anxiety, depression, and insomnia and sleep issues. My master of science in nursing specializing in psychiatry was completed at University of Cincinnati, where I developed a strong foundation in evidence-based mental health care.

As a psych NP, I treat a broad spectrum of mental health conditions in addition to my specializations.

My approach in treatment is being open and honest with my clients, and not dictating treatment on them. I always strive to correct potential underlying behavioral and lifestyle modifications prior to initiating medications. I strongly believe in the 4 major pillars of health; sleep, diet, exercise, and stress management always work and I gently guide my patients to take steps in improving these areas. After all that we discuss, it is up to the client to pick the direction that resonates best with them.

We’re likely a good match if you…

  • feel comfortable with people who give you space to be yourself
  • want help untangling thoughts that feel a little too loud
  • are slowly working toward brighter days
  • hope to feel more consistent
  • are trying to find small moments of joy again
