I have been practicing medicine as a nurse practitioner for 23 years, and psychiatry has always been my passion. My work is driven by caring, empathy, and a genuine love for people. When I meet someone for the first time, I pay close attention to the sadness, anxiety, pain, or confusion they may be experiencing. I listen carefully and begin thinking about how to help them move toward feeling balanced, healthy, and capable in their daily life.
My clinical focus includes mood disorders, attention difficulties, obsessive or intrusive thoughts, sleep issues, anger management, and psychosis. Over the years, I’ve developed a unique approach to medication management—one that combines experience, thoughtful evaluation, and individualized care to give each person the best chance at success.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Rancho Cucamonga
Finding psychiatrists in Rancho Cucamonga starts with knowing what kind of mental health care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists focus on talk therapy and support through approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care. If you are looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, clinical background, and approach to medication management before booking.
Rancho Cucamonga offers access to local psychiatric care, with nearby options around Upland, Ontario, Fontana, and the broader Inland Empire. In-person visits may work well if you prefer an office setting or want care close to home, while virtual appointments can make scheduling easier if local availability, commute time, or work hours shape your search. Psychiatric appointments, especially medication management visits, are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Reading bios can help you compare appointment style, areas of focus, availability, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Rancho Cucamonga can be a significant expense without insurance, and using in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients and match your plan, then shows your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can compare profiles, choose between virtual and in-person care when available, 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.
