About me

I am an ANCC board-certified Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner practicing in California. My goal is to help adults suffering from mental illness become their best selves. I am passionate about mental health and believe that with proper care and support, people who suffer from mental illness can thrive. Through evidence-based treatments, medication management, education, and personalized support, I strive to help clients reach their potential.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

At our first meeting, we will begin with introductions and then discuss your specific challenges. Together, we will define your goals, and with this information, I will develop a treatment plan specifically tailored to your needs.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strength is connecting with my clients on a personal level and creating a welcoming, comfortable, and supportive environment where your voice will be heard. The most important thing to me is providing my clients with the highest level of care and compassion possible.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My practice, ClearMind Wellness Center focuses on providing high-quality mental health care to adults who suffer from depression, anxiety, mood disorders, bipolar disorder, sleeping disorders, schizophrenia, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). These conditions often require long-term treatment and management. Working closely with clients, I develop individualized treatment plans and prescribe medication to manage symptoms and improve their quality of life.

My treatment methods

Supportive

I help clients better understand their emotions and behaviors, enabling them to cope with their symptoms. By using various strategies and techniques, you will be able to identify triggers, change your thinking patterns, maintain a self-care routine, and seek assistance when needed. Having these skills will allow you to manage your mood, stress, anxiety, and depression more effectively, improving your health in the process.

Denise listened to my issues, asked relevant questions about my past, in particular about my childhood - she spent much more than the allotted time with me & made recommendations for a medication. I was not thinking I needed as well as talk therapy. I think she was very thorough and listened to carefully.
