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

Hello, nice to meet you! I’m Scott, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with 12 years of nursing experience. I provide care to clients across Colorado, specializing in ADHD, anxiety, burnout, and depression. I completed my Master of Science in Nursing with a focus in psychiatry at Frontier Nursing 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 help clients find the support that fits them best, through medication management, therapy, and mind-body practices. My goal is to offer a calm, grounded space, using a client-centered approach informed by CBT, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.

We’re likely a good match if you…

  • appreciate someone who meets you exactly where you’re at
  • want to feel more confident about how you get things done
  • could use help in slowing down racing thoughts
  • want gentle support during tough weeks
  • are adjusting to a new chapter and figuring things out
