Hello!

My name is Stephanie, and I am a Family Nurse Practitioner here at Cerebrum. My journey in healthcare began 16 years ago and I have worked in a variety of different settings. Most recently, I spent the last 6 years in palliative care, where quality of life of my patients is one of the main focuses. I have treated patients in some of the most challenging times of their lives and my passion has become bringing a holistic, patient & family centered approach that honors the unique needs and preferences of everyone. My goal is to help you get to the core of your symptoms and come up with a personalized plan to get you back to living your best life! Issues with depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, OCD, poor body image, addictive behaviors, emotional outbursts, trauma, & sleep issues are some of the things I can help you work through. We will form an individualized plan and review various treatment options including psychotherapy (talk therapy), medication, and other medical treatments.

My other passion in life is rescue animals. I have both cats and dogs at home and have been a foster to many. One of my favorite things to do after a long day is taking my dogs Sadie & Stella for long walks in nature. I look forward to sharing some of the other ways to help you decompress and help you be free from symptoms that can be so debilitating and life-limiting.

As a Family Nurse Practitioner, I see adults, teenagers, & children. I am accepting patients 6 years old and up and see patients both virtually and in-person at the Crystal Lake location. I am looking forward to serving our community, one compassionate interaction at a time.
