English
| español I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner that is trained to provide a wide range of mental health services and behavioral services to patients and families in a variety of settings. I can diagnose, conduct psychotherapy, and prescribe medications for patients who have mental health disorders, behavioral issues, medical organic brain disorders, or substance abuse problems. I am licensed to provide psychosocial and physical assessments of mental health patients, establish treatment plans, and manage patient care.
I also serve as a consultant or as an educator for mental health patients and their families. I provide holistic care by focusing on psychiatric diagnosis, on medication treatment for psychiatric disorders, the mind, the body, and the spirit.
My goal is to provide efficient and individualized care that will help improve the patient’s mental health, physical, psychosocial, and spiritual health to help optimize their holistic wellbeing. I am aware of the physical, mental, and spiritual toll that mental health and substance abuse disorders can take on a person and their family. I am here to help.
