Hi! I'm Khatriena, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner licensed to practice across the state of Florida. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from St. Thomas University in Miami and am currently based in St. Lucie County. I specialize in diagnosing and treating conditions such as depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and ADHD. My approach is centered on creating a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard and cared for, with compassion and without judgment.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our first session will entail an introduction of the patient and provider. Next, we will discuss any past diagnoses and or past medications if they apply. Then we will work on a treatment plan tailored to meet your individual needs.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I have worked in healthcare for over 20 years, and with this exposure, I realized that many conditions are tied to our mental well-being. This insight has also shown me that mental health services are lacking in our communities and across the country. I pride myself in offering care that treats the person and not just the disease. I take an unbiased and nonjudgmental approach to treating individuals. This entails actively listening and gaining an understanding of each individual and their struggles.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I work with all ethnic groups and racial backgrounds from ages 10-65. I have experience working with clients to diagnose and treat depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and ADHD.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
As a mental health provider, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to create a safe space where we can explore your beliefs, feelings, and behaviors together. My goal is to help you understand whether these aspects might be unrealistic or counterproductive and how they interact with one another. In our sessions, we will work collaboratively to identify any unproductive thoughts and behaviors, and I’ll support you in finding ways to gently shift them. This process is about empowering you to develop healthier patterns and coping strategies, fostering your mental well-being along the way.
