About My Clients

I provide compassionate, trauma-informed care to children, adolescents, and adults across California. I offer psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and psychotherapy for anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, PTSD, sleep difficulties, and other life challenges. I take time to understand where you are, what you've experienced, and what may be contributing to the challenges you're facing.

My Background and Approach

I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) licensed in California. My approach goes beyond simply treating symptoms. Together, we identify triggers, increase self-awareness, establish meaningful goals, and develop practical strategies to help you move forward. My approach is warm, holistic, collaborative, and nonjudgmental, with care tailored to your individual needs and experiences. I draw on Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and culturally sensitive, trauma-focused care.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I value culturally responsive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental care. I recognize that each person's culture, family experiences, beliefs, relationships, and life experiences can influence their mental health and well-being. I strive to create a safe space where patients feel heard, respected, and understood. My approach is trauma-informed and collaborative, focusing not only on symptoms but also on understanding triggers, underlying stressors, personal strengths, and meaningful goals.
