Great to meet you!

I bring over 16 years of combined experience as a nurse and as an advanced psychiatric nurse practitioner, with experience in inpatient and outpatient care.

I offer a personalized approach that combines medication management with therapeutic support and education. I'm also bilingual in Spanish, I can effectively communicate with a diverse range of patients. My goal is to create a collaborative environment where clients feel understood and actively involved in their care.

My approach to therapy

My approach to providing care is deeply rooted in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. I believe in a partnership where patients are empowered to take control of their mental health journey. I work to create a treatment plan that fits your needs. As a bilingual provider, I'm ensuring that language is never a barrier. My focus is on fostering a trusting, open environment where patients feel safe to share, learn, and grow, knowing that their treatment will evolve as they do.

What you can expect from me

Patients in sessions with me can expect a comprehensive approach tailored to their individual needs. You will leave with a clear understanding of your diagnosis, a treatment plan that may include medication management, and strategies for managing symptoms.

Patients will receive education on their mental health condition, potential side effects of medications, and guidance on life style changes that can support their wellness. You can also expect to be heard and supported emotionally.
