Hello! I’m Ursala, and I’m here to support and guide you on your path to wellness. With 17 years of experience as a Registered Nurse and Family Nurse Practitioner, my journey began at Kenosha Memorial Hospital in 2007, where I worked in the medical-surgical unit. Over the past 11 years, I have expanded my expertise through certifications in integrative psychiatry, trauma-informed health systems change, and pharmacogenomics.

My diverse background includes family practice, cardiology, pain management, urgent care, and hospice/palliative medicine. Throughout my career, my passion for healthcare has been driven by a profound desire to help others. After years of working with individuals with chronic conditions, I realized that a more holistic approach to treatment was needed—one that addresses not just symptoms but the whole person. This insight led me to embrace integrative and functional medicine, which I consider my true calling.

I have worked with many patients who were struggling with mental health conditions. Many of them expressed that they felt their symptoms were not well controlled. I often heard people say, “My provider does not spend enough time with me.” “I feel like no one listens to me.” I wanted to design a practice where I have time to get to know you. This is why your initial appointment will be at least one hour long. I also check in with you weekly for the first month to see if you have questions or need to change any part of your care plan. It is very important to me that you feel heard and understood. I encourage my clients to tell me if they want to make changes. The goal of this process is to find a lifestyle that makes you feel your best!

I warmly welcome patients from all backgrounds, ensuring a comfortable and inclusive environment for everyone. I specialize in supporting individuals from LGBTQ+ communities and am dedicated to providing a safe space for all, including those navigating gender transitions. Your well-being is our priority, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.
