Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner · Serving Teens & Adults
I'm a dual board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Acute Care Nurse Practitioner. I provide psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and supportive mental health care for clients aged 14 to 60. My approach is to listen deeply, understand your experience fully, and work with you to develop a treatment plan that feels safe and effective.
“I believe the most meaningful care is collaborative, compassionate, and centered on the whole person.”
— Emily, Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
For high-functioning adults who feel overwhelmed, unfocused, or stuck — Emily provides thoughtful psychiatric evaluation and collaborative medication management that actually makes sense.
I believe that psychiatric care is most effective when it is holistic and collaborative. Medication can be an important tool, but it is only one part of a comprehensive treatment approach. Working together, we explore how your biology, environment, and daily routine interact.
Attentive, caring, and thorough. I take time to explain treatment options clearly and support you through each step. Many clients feel heard and understood in ways they have not experienced before.
Are open to exploring their mental health concerns with honesty and curiosity, whether the focus is anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood regulation, trauma, or other complex symptoms.
A thorough, personalized approach. We'll review your history and goals, then build a plan that may include medication, lifestyle support, and coordination with other providers.
At Riverside Counseling and Psychiatry, Emily works with clients from Ashburn, Leesburg, Sterling, and across Northern Virginia, and offers telehealth for patients throughout Virginia.
