Amazing Grace Psychiatric Services, PLCC, PMHNP, CNM, PMH-C – Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

(Practice opening late December 2023)!

I am a private practice psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner serving clients in and around Staunton, Virginia, as well as online as needed.  I am not a therapist, but it is my priority to create a therapeutic atmosphere that promotes growth and positive change, for you. I look forward to working with you to addresses your challenges and realize your goals. Mental health treatment is a process that can move you toward being the healthiest version of yourself and living the life you desire.

Treatment Approach

field pathI use a variety of approaches to address my client’s unique needs. Many successful treatment plans will utilize a foundation of mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral therapy, but sometimes medications are also needed.  We will quickly move toward a tailored treatment plan together that includes tools to help sustain the growth experienced in regular sessions.

Additionally, there is a growing body of research that supports the practice of self-compassion and mindfulness. Neuroscience research reveals individuals that practice these techniques are happier, more resilient, and better equipped to heal painful memories from the past. It is my honor and mission to help my clients move past what’s blocking them from reaching their full potential individually and in their relationships.

“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”
