Founder & Psychiatric‑Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP‑BC)
I am a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner with more than 30 years in nursing and behavioral health. My career spans bedside care, psychiatric practice, and leadership roles that deepened my respect for each person's story. I created Sparkle of Hope, LLC in Brandon, FL as a calm, relationship-centered telepsychiatry practice for children, adolescents, adults, and seniors across Florida. My style is warm, direct, and grounded in trauma-informed, culturally responsive care. I listen closely, explain clearly, and partner with you to make thoughtful decisions about medication, therapy, and lifestyle strategies so you can move toward steadier mood, clearer thinking, and a more hopeful daily life.
As an Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner, I provide comprehensive, evidence‑based psychiatric care with a strong clinical foundation and a commitment to treatment.
As a board‑certified psychiatric provider, I deliver safe, ethical, and informed mental health care grounded in rigorous training, clinical expertise, and ongoing professional standards.

I founded Sparkle of Hope, LLC to create a safe, accessible space where individuals and families could receive compassionate, evidence‑based psychiatric care without barriers. After years in behavioral health leadership, I saw how many people felt unheard or rushed. I built this practice to honor each person’s story, provide thoughtful guidance, and help them reclaim stability, clarity, and hope.
I provide secure, HIPAA-compliant video visits so you can receive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive therapy from a private space that works for you. Flexible weekday hours, with evening availability by request, help mental health care fit more easily into busy professional and family schedules.
I honor your story, your pace, and your lived experience. Every decision is made collaboratively, with clarity, respect, and emotional safety at the center.
With decades of nursing and behavioral health experience, I provide thoughtful, evidence‑based psychiatric care for everyone across Florida.
