Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I bring decades of nursing experience and a calm, compassionate presence to every visit. My approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and person-centered. Rather than just looking at a checklist of diagnoses, we will look at the whole picture—including sleep, stress, trauma history, relationships, and medical conditions—to understand how they affect your mental health. Together, we will create an individualized, holistic plan that respects your values. This may include practical coping strategies, therapy-based skills, and lifestyle adjustments to support your overall stability and resilience.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I'm a board-certified psychiatrist based in Miami, Florida, offering telehealth appointments for adults across Florida. My practice focuses on anxiety and depression, and I take the time to truly understand what brings each person to treatment before we talk about any plan. I combine medication management with psychotherapy so that each session addresses the full picture of your mental health. If you've been struggling to find a provider who listens carefully, asks the right questions, and works collaboratively with you, I'd love to connect.
