Hello everyone, My Name is Yaimara Cruz known as Yaimi. I live in beautiful sunny Miami, Florida. I am double-certified Nurse Practitioner in Family Practice and Psychiatry. As a dedicated Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I am here to support you in your journey toward mental wellness.
I am a licensed APRN ,PMHNP with training in both general medicine and psychiatry, offering a comprehensive and integrative approach to patient care. My background allows me to understand the close connection between physical health and mental well-being, and I strive to treat each patient as a whole person rather than focusing on isolated symptoms.
I completed my medical training in general medicine and later specialized in psychiatry, gaining experience in diagnosing and managing a wide range of medical and mental health conditions. My clinical approach combines evidence-based treatments with a compassionate, patient-centered perspective.
I specialize in mood disorders (including depression and bipolar disorder), anxiety (generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and social anxiety), and trauma-related conditions including PTSD. I am deeply committed to breaking the stigma surrounding mental health — and I understand firsthand how shame and silence can stand in the way of healing and daily functioning. Outside of work, I'm a parent who enjoys going to the pool and playing board games with my children, which keeps me grounded in the everyday joys that matter most.
My name is Sharnice, I am a dual board-certified Family and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over five years of clinical experience supporting individuals and families navigating a wide range of mental health and medical concerns.
My psychiatric specializations include mood disorders, anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders, and co-occurring substance use conditions. As a dual-certified provider, I also bring a primary care lens to my psychiatric practice — allowing me to treat the whole person, not just the diagnosis.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and deeply individualized. I believe every person deserves a space that feels safe, affirming, and free of judgment — where their voice is heard and their goals shape the direction of their care. Whether you are seeking support for the first time or looking for a provider who will truly partner with you in your wellness journey, I am here to meet you where you are.
Welcome!
Taking the first step toward mental health treatment can feel overwhelming, and I believe finding the right provider should feel comfortable and supportive. My goal is to create a safe, judgment-free environment where patients feel heard, respected, and genuinely supported throughout their care.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a background in emergency medicine as a Registered Nurse, along with experience in outpatient psychiatry and interventional mental health treatment settings. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related disorders, stress, and treatment-resistant mood conditions.
My name is Rose Thomas, and I bring over a decade of comprehensive experience in nursing, with a strong background in family practice and chronic disease management. I began my career as a registered nurse, providing bedside care on a cardiac floor, before earning my Master of Science in Nursing from Downstate University.
During my years of service, particularly in underserved communities, I became acutely aware of the critical shortage of psychiatric services available to patients. This realization motivated me to pursue further specialization, and I subsequently obtained a post-master's certificate in psychiatry from Maryville University.
My practice philosophy is rooted in patient-centered, compassionate, and evidence-based care. I am committed to creating a supportive and collaborative environment where clients feel valued and empowered in their mental health journey. My dual expertise in physical and psychological health enables me to take a holistic, integrative approach to each individual's needs. My goal is to support clients in achieving meaningful and lasting well-being, as well as a higher quality of life.
I'm a vibrant Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner who shares her light with patients to impact-fully guide them on their journey. I am Board certified in the state of Florida and interested in seeking licensure in other states,

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Ormond Beach, FL
Finding psychiatrists in Ormond Beach starts with understanding the type of care you want. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication. Therapists focus on talk therapy. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner may fit your needs. As you compare options, look for a clinician whose listed specialties, experience, and approach match what you want help with.
In a smaller city like Ormond Beach, local psychiatry options may be more limited than in nearby areas such as Daytona Beach or DeLand. Virtual appointments can expand your options while keeping care easier to fit into your schedule. Psychiatry visits for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, read each clinician’s bio to understand their focus areas, appointment style, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Psychiatric care in Ormond Beach can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session costs. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients and take your plan. You can add your insurance details to see estimated costs before you book, then review bios and schedule directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
