Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Coral Gables, FL


I work with individuals facing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, OCD, trauma-related disorders, insomnia, and substance use disorders. Many of my patients come to treatment feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or discouraged after struggling with symptoms that interfere with their relationships, work, school, or daily life. Whether you're seeking care for the first time or looking for a fresh approach after previous treatments haven't provided the results you hoped for, I'm here to help.

My approach begins with listening. I take time to understand your story, your goals, and the factors that contribute to your mental health. Together, we'll develop a personalized treatment plan that may include medication management, psychoeducation, lifestyle strategies, and brief therapeutic interventions. I believe in shared decision-making, ensuring you understand your options and feel confident in every step of your care.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right psychiatrist for you

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 Florida

Searching for psychiatrists in Florida starts with understanding the type of care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication as part of care. Therapists provide talk therapy and support through approaches that vary by training and specialty. If you want support for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD, look for a psychiatrist whose profile lists experience with your specific concerns. Needs and available psychiatrists can vary across Florida’s urban and rural areas, so reviewing specialties and care style can help you narrow your options.

Across Florida, your search may look different in Miami, Orlando, Tampa, South Florida, or smaller coastal communities. Some people prefer in-person appointments near home or work, while others choose virtual appointments for more scheduling flexibility. Psychiatry 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. Before booking, read psychiatrist bios for details on appointment availability, areas of focus, communication style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.

Psychiatric care in Florida can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. Nationally, Headway partners with 100+ insurance plans, and coverage depends on your location and exact plan. Headway also verifies that listed psychiatrists are accepting new patients with your plan, so you can browse profiles, compare availability, 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.
