I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over a decade of experience helping individuals navigate mental health challenges. Since earning my MSN from FIU in 2015, I have worked across inpatient crisis units, the Florida Assertive Community Treatment (FACT) team, and private practice, treating clients of all ages. My expertise lies in stabilizing individuals in distress, personalizing treatment plans, and restoring balance. I take a thoughtful, evidence-based approach to care—prescribing medication only when necessary and ensuring the benefits outweigh the risks. Beyond medication management, I emphasize lifestyle changes, nutritional psychiatry, functional medicine, and mindfulness to support your mental well-being. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, or a complex mental health condition, I’m here to guide you with compassion and expertise. Let’s work together to help you feel better, regain stability, and take control of your mental health.
In our first session, you can expect to feel heard, supported, and understood. I take the time to truly listen, provide education, and begin developing a plan tailored to your needs. We’ll start with introductions, then explore your concerns, challenges, and goals. By the end of our session, you’ll have a clearer understanding of your treatment options and the next steps we can take together to help you move forward.
With over a decade of experience in psychiatry, my greatest strength is my ability to develop personalized, effective strategies that bring stability and balance to both the mind and body.

I take the time to truly understand each client’s unique needs, ensuring that treatment goes beyond symptom management to address the root causes of distress. My thoughtful approach to medication, combined with my expertise in functional medicine, nutritional psychiatry, and mindfulness, allows me to provide care that is both evidence-based and empowering. Ultimately, my goal is to help clients regain control of their mental well-being and thrive.

By being client centered, motivational interviewing utilizes reflective listening and empathy to build rapport, while acting as as a guide who helps clients uncover their own motivation for change. This approach help clients embrace lifestyle changes (nutrition, sleep hygiene, stress management) and support medication adherence while respecting holistic preferences.
Mental health and physical health are deeply interconnected, and true healing happens when both are addressed together. In my practice, I take a comprehensive mind-body approach by integrating modern psychiatry with evidence-based wellness strategies. This includes nutrition, gut health optimization, exercise, breathwork, and stress management techniques to support overall well-being. I help clients understand how factors like inflammation, hormone imbalances, and nutrient deficiencies can impact mood, focus, and energy levels. By incorporating functional medicine, nutritional psychiatry, and mindfulness-based techniques, I create personalized treatment plans that go beyond medication—empowering clients to restore balance and take control of their mental health.
