PMHNP, 10 years of experience
I am a board-certified registered psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with more than 10 years of psychiatric mental health experience. I provide expert evaluation, diagnosis, treatment, and support for individuals and families with mental health needs. I care for all my clients holistically. I see clients in person at my Stuart, Florida office. I also see clients via telehealth, with appointments available Monday to Saturday. I offer home visits on a limited basis. I am an active member of the Army Reserves for almost 6 years. I take pride in patient-centered care, using techniques like talk therapy and medication management to relieve your mental health symptoms and improve your quality of life. I offer expert and knowledgeable psychiatric evaluations, giving you a better understanding of your mental health condition and treatment needs. With my support, you don’t have to be overwhelmed, lost, or frustrated by mental health symptoms. I also provide medication management. I will explore alternative and evidence-based therapies for conditions, including depression, anxiety, panic disorders, bipolar disorder, ADHD, insomnia, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). I work with adult patients of all ages, races, religions, and genders. I also offer gene testing. This will help to decrease trials and failures of multiple medications.

During the first session, we will start with a brief introduction. We will then get into your symptoms and treatment history. This will help us to come up with the best treatment plan that will be tailored to you.
It is very important to me to build a trusting relationship with my clients. I want to provide the best care for each client regardless of age, color, disability, gender, gender expression, gender identity, genetic information, national origin, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, or veteran status. Everyone has a unique story and deserves an individualized approach to care. I will have an open, professional, and respected relationship with my clients.
I specializes in multiple mental health disorders such as: Bipolar, Depression, Anxiety disorders, PTSD, Insomnia, Panic disorder, ADHD, ADD, Eating disorder, Schizophrenia, OCD and much more.

Dr. Porter has been super helpful with my journey of trying new anxiety/depression/adhd meds. She is very insightful and knowledgeable about different medications and side effects of said medication. She is very easy to talk to!! 15/10 would recommend

Dr. Claudia is very supportive! She gives great advice and seeks to help even in little ways such as words of encouragement.
Supportive psychotherapy is a type of therapy that primarily focuses on providing emotional support, encouragement, and validation during difficult life circumstances or psychological challenges.
