About My Clients
While Callie cares for clients across the lifespan, she has additional training in the treatment of children/adolescents, and integrates developmental strategies into all of her client work. Since focusing solely on medication might not address all of a client’s goals, Callie strives to understand the whole individual to tailor unique treatment recommendations.
My Background and Approach
Caroline “Callie” Fernandez is a Columbia University trained, and Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, with extensive experience in medication management and psychotherapy. Callie’s approach considers a client’s nutrition, physical activity, social patterns, as well as unique features such as one’s cultural identity and background; this is shaped by her own experience as a 2nd generation Cuban-American. Callie strives to create a space where clients feel welcome and seen.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
By prioritizing active, neutral, and non-judgmental listening, Callie works to build an interactive assessment with the client's help. From this, Callie works with clients in order to come up with a collaborative treatment plan that encompasses their needs, goals, and evidence based practices.
