Great to meet you!

Cristina Pajarillaga, DNP, PMHNP-BC, a Licensed and Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with years of healthcare experience, specializes in assisting individuals in managing mental health challenges. I have been working with individuals facing depression, anxiety, panic disorders, OCD, stress, grief, and other mental health concerns.

My approach to therapy

My approach is holistic and solution-focused, addressing not only symptoms but also the underlying factors affecting overall well-being.

What you can expect from me

I work hard to create a comfortable, supportive space where you feel truly listened to and respected. Together, we’ll develop a treatment/medication plan that’s tailored to your needs, while I closely monitor your progress to ensure your treatment is working for you. My goal is to help you make meaningful, lasting changes that enable you to live with greater balance, resilience, and a renewed sense of well-being.
