I received a Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University, a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from San Diego State University, and an Associate Degree in Nursing from San Diego City College. I am board-certified as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) from the ANCC. While completing clinical rotations, I was immediately drawn to the field of psychiatry. I saw how compassion and empathy – skills I’d developed over a 19-year career in veterinary medicine – were extremely valuable and immediately transferable to patients experiencing mental health issues. Since then, I’ve worked in an acute care inpatient psychiatry unit and on a consult team treating patients with substance use disorders. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I am committed to helping patients achieve their mental health goals. Growing up in New Mexico, I was surrounded by vibrant Southwestern culture, delicious food, and otherworldly landscapes. Throughout high school and college, I immersed myself in the music and theater scenes and became active in the queer community after coming out at age 16. Living as a young queer kid in a relatively conservative town presented many challenges, but those experiences made me understand and appreciate the importance of visibility, inclusion, trust, and mutual respect. As a person and a practitioner, I embrace everyone I meet with curiosity and an open mind. I believe that this creates a judgment-free, welcoming environment that can nurture and grow relational trust. With clients, my priority is to help them feel seen, heard, and valued. I believe that fostering a rich personal life is what allows me to show up for my clients and provide the best care possible. When not working, I can be found attending/traveling to see live shows, or listening/dancing to one of my favorite records at home (current rotation: Metronomy, Little Dragon, Stromae, and Charlotte Adigéry). I share my home with my husband and our two spunky senior pups who frequently demand our undivided attention. I also love traveling, hiking, cycling, and pretending to be good at roller skating.

I received my undergraduate degree (Bachelor of Science in Nursing) and doctoral degree (Juris Doctor) from University of Sto. Tomas and my advanced practice degree (Master of Science in Nursing-Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practictioner) from Walden University. Since 2004, I have worked extensively in various inpatient acute care environments in Medical as well as Behavioral Psychiatric Inpatient Units covering Adolescents, Acute Adults, Geriatric Med-Psych, and Psychiatric Intensive Care centered on the significantly impacted, underserved population.

Are you tired of providers who don't make time to listen to you? Providers who don't even take time to ask how you are truly doing?

I'm here to help make that vision a reality. I provide patient-centered psychiatry services through video and in-person visits at my office in San Diego. My mission is simple: to empower my clients to achieve a good quality of life. I enjoy working with adult clients, particularly those with chronic health conditions like hypertension, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease. Too often, mental health takes a backseat to physical health, leaving individuals feeling overwhelmed, depressed, or anxious. I understand the challenges and am here to offer support every step of the way. I take a holistic and client-centered approach to mental healthcare. Through motivational interviewing and cognitive-behavior therapy, I empower my clients to gain insight into their health status and take control of their well-being. I'm also passionate about educating my clients on health promotion and disease prevention practices, as I believe these are essential for enhancing overall well-being. In fact, these principles are deeply ingrained in my own lifestyle—I regularly practice Yoga and Tai Chi in addition to dancing to nurture my own mental and physical health. I commend you for taking the first steps toward prioritizing your mental health, and I'm here to guide you on your journey to finding that mind-body connection. Together, we'll navigate through your mental health challenges and work towards maximizing your full health potential, so you can live life to the fullest.
