(she/her)
Hello, my name is Merit. Do you feel alone? Tired of being tired? Unsure of what direction to take? Overwhelmed almost every day? If so, you're in the right place—and I'm here to support you on your journey. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 11 years of experience in various medical and mental health settings. For the past two years, I’ve been practicing as a psychiatric nurse practitioner in the greater Houston area, as well as in Arizona, Connecticut, Washington State, and New Mexico. In addition to medication management, we offer evidence-based psychotherapy, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Our philosophy extends beyond medication alone—we embrace a holistic approach to mental health that thoughtfully integrates supplements, vitamins, nutrition, exercise, and mindfulness practices. I am deeply committed to providing comprehensive, individualized care. I believe that patients should be at the center of their care, and I strive to empower each individual through a personalized and integrated treatment plan.
