Private Mentoring Services for Graduate Nursing Students and Nurse Educators
About Nursing Professor
My Philosophy
Learning — and teaching — should be engaging and meaningful, not chronically stressful or depleting. Yet many graduate nursing students and nurse educators find themselves overwhelmed, pressed for time, and carrying concerns they have little space to talk through.
I believe support and guidance are most helpful when they create room to slow down, think clearly, and make sense of what’s happening — whether that involves learning challenges, professional stress, conflict, or uncertainty about next steps.
“Education is the kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel.” — Socrates
Today’s technologies offer powerful tools for learning and teaching, but they can also add to the sense of pressure when time is limited and expectations are high. Having a conversation with someone who understands both nursing education and clinical practice can help restore clarity, confidence, and a sense of direction.
My Experience
My work draws on decades of experience in nursing education and academic leadership, with much of my teaching focused on graduate nursing students. I am also a certified nurse practitioner in Women’s Health and Gerontology.
Across more than 50 years in nursing, I have practiced in a wide range of settings — from hospitals and intensive care units to private offices, storefront clinics, and telehealth. My clinical work has included both primary and acute care, and I have cared for patients across the lifespan, from high-risk newborns to chronically ill older adults.
This breadth of experience informs the private, confidential conversations I offer to nursing students and nurse educators who are navigating stress, burnout, conflict, or complex professional decisions.
I have a longstanding interest in organizational culture, burnout, and the ethical tensions that arise in nursing work and nursing education.
