Great to meet you!

Hello, this is Dr. Medina, a Family Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner ( FMHNP-BC) . I provide holistic psychiatric care combining medication management, psychotherapy, and preventive strategies tailored to children, teens, adults, and elders. I specialize in treating mood disorders, OCD, trauma/PTSD, psychosis, substance use, and more. I use CBT, DBT, mindfulness & multicultural approaches to support you in finding balance, resilience & healing.

My approach to therapy

I believe that an authentic, compassionate, and grounded approach is essential to mental wellness. I provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where clients can openly process their experiences, and together we create a personalized treatment plan

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to leave the session with greater self-understanding, practical coping strategies, and a clearer perspective on their challenges. They also gain a safe, supportive space to explore thoughts and emotions, develop tools to manage stress or difficult situations, and as we work collaboratively toward achievable personal goals.
