He recommend a small change in meds and he explained the expected results. I was very happy wit this explanations. I look forward to our next visit at which we will follow up on the new med and my condition.”

Through active listening and thoughtfulness, my primary duty is prescribing medication for psychiatric illness. I have experience in managing most mental health disorders and currently practice with Katie's Way in Manhattan on Saturdays via televideo.
I started as a psychiatric RN on the inpatient units at the Topeka VA hospital. After becoming certified as a PMHNP, I worked for Pawnee Mental Health Services in Junction City, KS. I then went into private practice fulltime, doing business as Pinnacle Behavioral Health LLC. Currently, in addition to working with Katie's Way, I am the attending provider for the residential Stress Disorders Treatment Program at Colmery-O'Neal VA Medical Center.
I live in Topeka with my 3 children, 1 dog, and 2 cats. I enjoy fishing, hiking, and reading. Since 2017, I have tried to keep up a regular practice of TM meditation.
