If you’re struggling with impairing fear, anxiety, mood instability, grief, insomnia, existential crises, trauma, or you just want to strengthen your mental health, I use a holistic approach to help you implement effective strategies to achieve your goals, supporting your journey towards balance, self-empowerment & better health. I don't just prescribe medications. I use psychotherapy and integrative approaches to help you go from "dis-ease" to ease. I address historical trauma with a decolonizing approach. I believe that ancestral knowledge, unconditional love & reconnecting with the rest of nature are crucial for humanity to heal.
At Ki' Wellness, I offer holistic telepsychiatry/ online services in Georgia and Florida. I use mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, address nutritional/ metabolic imbalances, recommend improvements to your lifestyle/ diet, ecotherapy, and prescribe/ deprescribe psychiatric medications safely. Hablo español (primer idioma). Falo português.
I hope I can support your empowerment journey by helping you find effective ways to address the challenges you are facing, being true to yourself, and making your own choices about how to fulfill your aspirations. If you’re interested in scheduling a consultation, please book it on our website (or through Headway to use insurance- only in GA).

I can help you address self-esteem, fear, anxiety, mood disorders, existential crises, trauma, poor concentration, etc. Initially, my main task will be getting to know you & your goals so that we can create a tailored, holistic plan. I don't limit treatment plans to symptom reduction/ medication management. Most people I work with start feeling more empowered & balanced after 3 to 6 sessions.

Person-centered approach, using medication management as a potential instrument, but my work is not centered on prescribing. I often use interventions based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy & Mindfulness, focusing on self-compassion and self-empowerment.
