Great to meet you!

Candra is a psychiatric nurse practitioner who is funny a driven, loyal, compassionate, human being who cares about people. I strive daily to serve clients who need help reaching their goals in life. Whether you are a teen, college student, in corporate America, a single parent, or an over achiever that needs permission to rest, I am the provider to help meet your needs. Everyone does not need medication, sometimes, people just need someone to talk to that actually cares and understands. Some people needs assistance with medication, and that is perfectly fine, I provide a space that finds what medication works best for you. I provide an integrative approach of being holistic, realistic, practical, and safe while providing quality care for my clients. If it's depression, anxiety, insomnia, schizophrenia, bipolar, a break up, a bad grade, adhd, failed marriage, trauma, or job loss, I can help you. It is my duty to assure my client’s enter and leave out completely better. Healing isn’t a solo journey, and I’m here to walk it with you.

My approach to therapy

Lets laugh together, cry together, identify problems together, and come up with solutions together.

What you can expect from me

You will feel better after every session knowing you have a provider that is relatable, competent, and that cares about you.
