I am a Doctorally prepared bilingual Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), Advanced Practice Addiction Registered Nurse (CARN-AP), Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with over 11 years of experience in behavioral health, substance use, psychiatry, counseling, & trauma-informed care. Choosing yourself can feel like the hardest step—and yet it’s the one that opens the door to healing. I help people who have been putting others first, find themselves exhausted, overwhelmed, worrying, sad, or searching for meaning. I can guide you to find a deeper sense of balance, clarity, and connection to what matters most. My role is to listen deeply, explain things clearly, and collaborate with you to build a plan that feels authentic and sustainable. Together, we’ll explore the patterns that have shaped your life, challenge what no longer serves you, and create space for you to reclaim your direction. I help teens and adults find balance through counseling, psychiatric and addiction medication management, "MAT", deprescribing, or support post-acute withdrawal. My approach also goes beyond prescriptions, supplements, and counseling; we’ll integrate lifestyle strategies and look at your stress, sleep, work, and relationships. Reaching out takes courage. You don’t need to have it all figured out before we talk. If you’re ready to explore what’s possible, I’d be honored to support you in creating a life that feels steady, clear, and aligned with your values and who you truly are.
