Great to meet you!
Welcome! Taking the first step toward better mental health isn't always easy, and finding a provider who truly listens can make all the difference.
I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, and I came to psychiatry after 14 years in healthcare. Before I began prescribing, I worked as a registered nurse and clinical supervisor in ICU step-down, emergency, cardiovascular, geriatric, and correctional settings in large hospital systems across four states.". That background shapes how I practice today: I've cared for people at their most acute, I understand how medical conditions and medications interact with mental health, and I've learned to build trust quickly with people who weren't expecting to trust a provider.
I work with adolescents and adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma-related conditions, insomnia, and other common mental health concerns. As a fully bilingual English- and Spanish-speaking provider, I offer complete psychiatric care for Spanish-speaking patients who prefer treatment in their native language.
My goal is to provide compassionate, thorough, evidence-based care in an environment where you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in your treatment.
