Navigate postpartum changes with compassionate care from Headway's network of 301 providers in Carson City. Flexible scheduling and virtual options make it easier to prioritize your mental health during this transition, with sessions often covered by insurance.
As a bilingual, board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with Indigenous roots and lived immigrant experience, I founded Cristal Psykare to close the gap in accessible, affordable mental health care. With clinical experience across the lifespan and specialties in ADHD, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and substance use, I offer trauma-informed, culturally responsive care in both English and Spanish.
I work hard to be clinically informed and Christ centered in all that I do with my clients.
Trauma leaves us feeling broken, unhappy, and disconnected from our true selves. You may be fed up with feeling anxious and overwhelmed in your relationships, feeling hopeless or not good enough. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to rediscover yourself and find out who you are. You’re ready to have freedom from your past trauma. Most of all, you’re ready to experience fulfilling and healthy relationships!
I am a licensed psychotherapist with more than 12 years of experience in private practice and currently see clients in Arizona and Nevada. While I work with a wide range of issues and populations, much of my recent work has focused on adults ages 20 to 35, particularly around relationships and personal growth.
I specialize in helping individuals navigate relationship challenges, relationship addiction, finding their voice within relationships, healing after breakups, and becoming the healthiest, most authentic version of themselves while in partnership with others.
Another area of passion for me is working with older adults who are facing major life transitions or serving as caregivers for an ill spouse or aging parent. I also specialize in trauma and PTSD treatment, helping clients heal from some of life's most painful experiences.
When I am not in the therapy office, I enjoy teaching psychology courses at the local college, combining my love of education with my commitment to supporting growth and resilience across all stages of life!
