(he/him)
Hello. I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I have been an RN since 2006, in psychiatry since 2012, and a Psychiatric nurse practitioner since 2021. I have a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Gannon University, a Diploma in Nursing from St. Luke School of Nursing, a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Moravian College, and a Master of Science in Nursing from Frontier Nursing University. I specialize in medication management and assist my patients with talk and supportive therapy.
When we have our first session, a client can expect a comfortable, nonjudgmental attitude from this provider. We will share some information, where I will learn a little about you, and you will learn a little about me. This will develop into a therapeutic relationship where a bond based on trust and understanding will be formed.
My bedside manner, ability to listen, and sense of empathy are my greatest strengths as a provider. There are many wonderful and brilliant providers out there who will give you the right medication recommendations. But making a client or patient feel that they are being listened to, that they are safe, and that they matter to you as a provider is what will make a real difference in that person's life.
I enjoy working with clients who suffer from anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and autism. I work with clients from ages 6-95. I am a provider who enjoys working with patient's that other's may shy away from. If you feel that you have not received the right kind of attention, the diagnosis you have been given is not the right one, maybe you feel that no one is listening to your concerns, or the medications you are on are not working. Then, I am the one that you need!

Supportive
I have been using supportive therapy treatment my whole career as a nurse and as an NP. I develop a therapeutic relationship with my clients, and through that relationship, I assist them in improving their self-esteem, regulating impulses and negative thinking, and overcoming challenges.

During our initial meeting, Dr. Sierra was warm, direct, solution-oriented, knowledgeable, and humorous. Each of these approaches to communicating fault authentic and excites me for future sessions.

Heriberto was very informative. He got to the point and made me feel secure in my mental health journey.

Cannot recommend him enough! He got me on the correct dosage and medications. I have been dealing with wrong medications for 10 years and he fixed it for me!
