My path in mental health began as a mental health worker and progressed through nursing and leadership roles, including charge nurse and house supervisor.

I work with children, adolescents, adults, and veterans from diverse backgrounds and provide comprehensive initial psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and psychotherapy. My treatment areas include anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, panic disorder, PTSD, trauma, grief, stress, and relationship and family concerns, with an interest in women's mental health. I'm passionate about helping people understand their mental health and feel empowered to take an active role in their care.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Long Beach
Finding psychiatrists in Long Beach starts with understanding the type of care they provide. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication; therapists provide talk therapy. Medication management may be part of care for concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. Some people start with a psychiatrist, some start with a therapist, and some work with both. As you compare options, look for training, listed specialties, and experience that match what you want support with.
Long Beach has a range of local options across neighborhoods like Belmont Shore, Alamitos, and Bixby Knolls, along with nearby access to psychiatrists in Orange County, California, and the broader Los Angeles area. In-person appointments may work well if you prefer a local office, while virtual appointments can add flexibility if your schedule or commute affects when you can meet. Psychiatric medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Review profiles before booking to compare availability, session format, communication style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatry in Long Beach, CA, can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners who match your preferences, accept your plan, and are accepting new patients. You can add your insurance, review estimated costs, read bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
