I want you to feel comfortable and understood from the very first conversation we have. My work centers on helping people manage anxiety, lift the weight of depression, and find steady footing in recovery from addiction. I see care as something we build together, not something done to you, so your voice shapes every step of the plan. Whether you are just starting to notice something feels off or you have carried a struggle for years, you deserve a partner who listens closely and treats your goals as the compass. I bring warmth, encouragement, and a genuine belief that change is possible, and I am glad you are here.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I was born and raised in both Texas and overseas via military father. I experienced the machismo of Texas along with the racism experienced by the mostly Latino/a population in Texas, and always wanted to find a career helping those who have been ostracized and "othered."

I am board certified with a masters degree in nursing from University of Texas, and as a licensed psychiatric/mental health nurse practitioner. I practice in the state of New York.

I enjoy assisting those with diagnoses of bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, adhd, and schizophrenia, along with post-traumatic stress disorder, and the varied problems that arise from past trauma.

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 Syracuse

Finding psychiatrists in Syracuse starts with understanding what type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists provide talk therapy. Medication management may be part of care for concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. Both therapy and psychiatry can be valid starting points, depending on what you want to address and the kind of support you’re looking for.

In a smaller city like Syracuse, local psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger New York markets, so virtual appointments can help expand your search. You may also want to compare appointment availability, whether a psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and how each profile describes their clinical focus. Psychiatry visits for medication management 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 before booking can help you understand each psychiatrist’s approach, communication style, and areas of experience.

Psychiatric care in Syracuse 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. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, check whether they take your insurance, and see an estimated cost before you book. You can review profiles, compare virtual and in-person options, 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.
