I’m a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with over 15 years of healthcare experience, including emergency, cardiac, and brain injury care. I help adults with mood disorders like depression, generalized anxiety, social anxiety and panic disorders, as well as mood changes after brain injury and the emotional toll of living with chronic illnesses. My approach is collaborative and I focus on treating the whole person. I see patients in English and Spanish.
I combine medication management with supportive psychotherapy by providing a collaborative, judgment-free space for my clients, based on CBT, ACT and positive psychology theories. I see you as a whole person, where emotional and physical well-being go hand in hand. We set goals together, I explain every option in plain language, and we follow up regularly so your plan fits you.
In your first session, we take time to get to know you: your history, current symptoms, health and medications, and how we can help you feel better. You’ll have space to share your story without shame or blame. Together we’ll set clear goals and explore your options and we’ll agree on a few guidelines for care, like scheduling and communication, so everything runs smoothly. You’ll leave with a plan that fits you and a clear idea of next steps.
