As a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, I bring a rich multicultural background to my practice—born in Brazil and thriving in the United States since 2012, I am fluent in English and Portuguese (Brazilian), with proficiency in Spanish.

Hi, my name is Missa. I work with individuals facing a variety of obstacles, including trauma, shame, addiction, questions about sexuality and gender identity, religious trauma, and the search for deeper self-acceptance. As part of the LGBTQ community, I understand firsthand the importance of an affirming space to explore your experience. Whether you're navigating the complexities of who you are, or struggling to find your place in a world that often feels unwelcoming, I am honored to walk alongside you every step of the way.

I offer telehealth services for residents of South Carolina and California, and in-person services for Charleston, SC residents.

Hi, I'm Mitch — a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with a Doctor of Nursing Practice from Vanderbilt University. San Diego has been home since 2020, when the Navy first brought me here.
My background includes pediatrics at Children’s Hospital in St. Paul, inpatient psychiatry in Nashville and San Diego, crisis stabilization, and outpatient mental health care. I’ve worked with veterans, college students, LGBTQ+ individuals, people experiencing homelessness, and patients navigating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma, substance use, and severe mental illness.
I primarily provide psychiatric evaluation and medication management while integrating supportive therapy, psychoeducation, and practical coping strategies into visits. My approach is collaborative, direct, and grounded in helping people improve day-to-day functioning and quality of life.
I look forward to getting to know you.
