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

Hello, nice to meet you! I’m Lucy, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with 4 years of nursing experience. I provide care to clients across California, specializing in anxiety, depression, ADHD, insomnia & sleep issues, bipolar, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), chronic illness, family issues, relationship issues, seasonal affective disorder (SAD), stress management. My master of science in nursing specializing in psychiatry was completed at West Coast University where I developed a strong foundation in evidence-based mental health care.

Trained as a psych NP, I am a generalist with experience in treating a wide range of mental health conditions.

My approach is centered on compassionate, patient-centered care that views each individual as a whole person to develop personalized treatment plans. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental, and collaborative environment where patients feel heard, understood, and empowered.
