Candra is a psychiatric nurse practitioner who is funny a driven, loyal, compassionate, human being who cares about people. I strive daily to serve clients who need help reaching their goals in life. Whether you are a teen, college student, in corporate America, a single parent, or an over achiever that needs permission to rest, I am the provider to help meet your needs. Everyone does not need medication and sometimes medication is necessary, I provide a space that offers both options. Depression, anxiety, adhd, bipolar, failed marriage, job loss, or stress, I can help you. Reach out and make the appointment, I got the rest.
I specialize in creating a balance of expert medication management and therapy, ensuring my clients receive the right support in a holistic manner. I provide a safe space where they feel heard, understood, and empowered to reach their goals.
At Brightstone Psychiatry, we understand that reaching out for help can feel overwhelming—but it’s a powerful and courageous first step. Whether you're dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, or just feeling "off," you deserve support, and we’re here to listen without judgment. Lets laugh together, cry together, and grow together.
