Great to meet you!

I’ve been in the nursing field for over 19 years and became a psychiatric nurse practitioner through Walden University, focusing on mood and attention disorders in children, teens, and adults. I take a warm, empowering, and open-minded approach. I provide medication management with integrated therapy and speak both English and Spanish. Outside of work, I love spending time with family, training my puppy, exploring new spots in South Florida, and enjoying photography.

My approach to therapy

My approach to care is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each person’s unique needs. I focus on creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and understood. I incorporate evidence-based methods like CBT, DBT, and motivational interviewing into my medication management sessions, but please know that I do not do solely psychotherapy as any psychotherapy done is strictly alongside medication management. I believe in empowering clients through education and shared decision-making—whether that means exploring holistic options, medication, or both.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to leave sessions feeling heard, supported, and equipped with a clear plan. I work collaboratively to develop personalized treatment goals that reflect your needs and values. You’ll gain insight into your symptoms, receive education about your options, and walk away with tools—whether medication, lifestyle changes, or therapeutic strategies—to help you move toward stability and wellness.
