PMHNP Intern

Hello! My name is Catherine. I’m a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner intern with a background in nursing and a passion for mental health care. Over time, I’ve come to appreciate how important it is to treat a person as a whole and that’s what led me to this field. I know that seeking mental health support can feel like a big step and my goal is to help make that process feel less overwhelming by creating a space that is safe, supportive, and free of judgment where you can explore your goals at your own pace. I’m here to support your growth while honoring your autonomy, and to help you feel confident in the choices you make for your mental health. When I’m not working, I enjoy relaxing with family and friends, taking my dog on long walks, and catching a good tennis match.
