(she/her)
My name is Alice Echeta, DNP, and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner. Most of my career has been in mental health. I am compassionate. I have ten years of experience providing the utmost empathetic care to individuals with mental illnesses. I see myself as a mental health advocate and understand that an individual with a mental illness requires as much care and attention as someone diagnosed with diabetes or hypertension.
Clients can expect a collaborative and complete approach to understanding their mental health needs at the first encounter.
As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, I have worked with individuals with mental health illnesses for the past ten years. I have learned to apply the ethical principles of justice and respect for others. People should be treated fairly and equally, and I acknowledge the right of all individuals to make decisions. Applying this is my greatest strength as a provider.
I love working with individuals across life spans who are struggling with various mental health issues through medication management and talk therapy to help them stay focused and maintain functionality.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I provide education about the nature of mental health conditions, treatment options, and potential approaches to patient care. This helps patients learn about their mental health and treatment possibilities and alternatives.
