Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner

Julie (she/her) is a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. She received Bachelor’s degrees from both the University of Florida (Psychology) and the University of Central Florida (Nursing.) Her Master of Science in Nursing degree was earned at Valdosta State University, where she went on to complete her Post-Master’s Certification as a Family Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.  She is dually board certified, both as a Psychiatric and Adult Nurse Practitioner. 

Her approach is genuine caring and advocating for her clients. She believes in incorporating both medicinal and counseling interventions to serve her patients. Her strong belief is that counseling and psychiatry must happen together to reach lasting wellness. As the saying goes, “medicine is a lifejacket, and therapy teaches you the skills to swim.”

Julie’s specialties include serving those experiencing ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, as well as focusing on the areas of women’s mental health and adoptive families. Additionally, Julie is one of the few psychiatric providers in the area to serve children and adolescents. 

Outside of the office, Julie enjoys gardening and propagating plants, sharks tooth hunting, sleeping-in, and spending time with her partner, 4 children and dogs. Julie says it rejuvenates her to spend time outside, and to commit to being an introvert with no plans.
