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

Hello, nice to meet you! I’m Laura, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with 15 years of nursing experience. I provide care to clients across Colorado, specializing in ADHD, OCD, anxiety, depression, insomnia & sleep issues, bipolar disorder, and life transitions. My master of science in nursing specializing in psychiatry was completed at Purdue Global University 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.

I take a whole-person, client-centered approach to mental health care, considering not only symptoms and diagnoses, but also your biology, life experiences, environment, sleep, and individual strengths. My goal is to create a calm, collaborative space where you feel understood and empowered in your care. I help clients find the support that fits them best through medication management, psychotherapy-informed care, behavioral strategies, and sleep-focused interventions. My approach draws from CBT, ACT, trauma-informed care, and neurodiversity-affirming practices.

We’re likely a good match if you…

  • are looking for thoughtful, personalized medication management
  • feel like anxiety or intrusive thoughts are getting in the way of their life
  • want practical support with ADHD and executive functioning
  • are struggling with sleep, focus, or feeling mentally “stuck”
  • value a provider who listens, collaborates, and sees the whole person
