I'm a doctorally prepared psychiatric nurse practitioner with over 15 years of experience in mental health. My background includes extensive work in crisis intervention and helping people through difficult times. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and schizophrenia. My approach is professional and personable, blending expertise with warmth and humor. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where healing can truly begin.
Hi, I'm Ruth. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a background in nursing and behavioral health, and I am deeply committed to providing compassionate, personalized care. My experience includes inpatient behavioral health, psychiatric nursing, hospice care, and community-based settings, which has given me the opportunity to support people through many different stages of life and healing. I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults facing concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, mood disorders, insomnia, stress, and other mental health challenges.
My journey started with volunteering in the Guidance Counselor's office at my high school. In this setting, my emotional intelligence and level of empathy began to grow. I decided to study Psychology to understand how the mind works, then studied Social Work to understand how that mind works when affected by events in the environment. I have worked extensively with children/ students, the LGBTQIA+ community, people living with HIV/ AIDS, the elderly, Veterans, Immigrants, couples and families. I accept clients no matter their race, gender, ethnicity or background. I utilize a strength- based approach for my clients as I believe we all have the ability to take control of our own lives.
