Hi there. Welcome and nice to meet you, I'm Marline. I am co-founder of Patient's Choice Mental Health & Medical Care. I'm a double board certified Nurse Practioner, with specialties in Family/Primary-Care and Psychiatry-Mental health. What does that mean? I diagnose mental health disorders, provide psychiatric evaluations, education, prescribe medication, offer talk therapy and coaching, and refer to colleagues when required. My goal is to help you function at your best self, with your assistance we can create a treatment plan that is tailored specifically for you. I understand it is challenging to navigate through life, you may be experiencing a lot of uncertainty about the direction life is taking you. I want you to know this is the place for you. You are not alone; whether you are struggling with worry and feeling overwhelmed, having a hard time overcoming depression, sadness, despair, feeling unmotivated or have no desire to get out of bed in the mornings, we can create a solution together.

If you allow yourself to, we will unpack a lot and decide how you are going to move forward. I acknowledge that life can be complicated and I understand the importance of self-care. To me, self-care is watching Law & Order SVU or Grey's on weekends, a relaxation massage, trying new skincare products from Ulta, a new recipe, spending time with a friend, or strolling through Ross or TJ Maxx (because I love a good bargain).

Hi there, I am originally from Michigan and moved to Brevard County, FL in 1997. I have a BA in Communications from Michigan State University and a Masters in Social Work from the University of Michigan. I worked for Candle Lighters of Brevard, when I first moved to town. My father had a stroke and he was in and out of hospitals and nursing homes for 6 years. His illness prompted me to go back to school at the University of Central Florida to obtain my BSN-RN. I worked Labor Delivery/Mother Baby at Wuesthof Melbourne for five years, during which time I went back to University of Central Florida to achieve my MSN/ Family Nurse Practitioner. During that time I also got divorced and was a single mother to an amazing son. I have been through many challenges and bumps in the road throughout my childhood, adolescence, and adulthood which has given me enhanced understanding, compassion, empathy, and a lack of being judgemental. I went back to school yet again, and completed my PMHNP from the University of Cincinnati. I specialize in integrative medicine which entails finding the root of the illness and treating it with lifestyle changes, healthy diet, exercise, Bio-identical hormone replacements, supplements, and medications that fix the problem instead of bandaiding the symptoms. I believe that the mind, body, and spirit are connected and need to be balanced, to feel a sense of over all well being. I do not believe in "cookie cutter or one size fits all medicine". I believe that you know your body and mind better than anyone. We will work together to find the root cause and discover the best treatment for you! Sometimes we may have to try many different options before we find the right fit, but I am like Felix the cat I have a large bag of tricks and I am able to think outside the box!!

I thank you for taking the time to read my bio. I have worked in health care since January 2006. I know that the healthcare field is a calling, and one of my life missions is to impact others positively. I went explicitly into psychiatry because, during high school I felt there were only a few subjects I could apply to everyday life. Everything starts with the mind, and as the famous quote states, “I think therefore I am.” First are the thoughts, whether conscious or unconscious, then feelings, i.e., emotions, and then actions. Thoughts, feelings, and actions encompass our daily lives and must be in harmony or as close to balance for everyone in order for us to live up to our full potential. I have worked as a certified nurse assistant and understand the necessity of working hard to provide for myself and my family. In addition, I have worked as a registered nurse in the hospital setting helping to heal those who have suffered from heart attacks, strokes, amputations, blindness, diabetes, sickle cell, cancer, motor vehicle accidents, etc. With this acquired experience, knowledge and understanding I have concluded that life is fragile. Thus, it is important to live each day to the best of our ability. Uniquely, I have been a family nurse practitioner and worked in primary care and urgent care. Thus, I understand and can treat hypertension, diabetes, back pain, hypothyroidism, common skin conditions, acid reflux, irritable bowel syndrome, and much more. I specialize in psychiatry and see patients 18 years and older. Initial visits are one hour, and follow-up appointments are a half hour. This reduces the need to rush and allows us to be as comprehensive as possible to provide the best mental health care possible. The goal and vision are to work with you and to establish a positive relationship in which I recommend various treatments. Still, it’s done in partnership and collaboration to assist you with becoming the best version of yourself. It would be my privilege and honor to serve as your mental health provider. I have worked in the hospital setting helping to heal those who have suffered from heart attacks, strokes, amputations, diabetes, cancer, motor vehicle accidents, etc. With this acquired experience, knowledge and understanding I have concluded that life is fragile. Thus, it is important to live each day to the best of our ability.
