Hello, I'm Esther, DNP, PMHNP-BC, and FNP-C, dedicated to delivering compassionate, evidence-based mental health care tailored to each individual’s unique needs. Fluent in Spanish and Korean, I strive to create a safe, welcoming space where people from all backgrounds feel heard and supported without judgment.
I hold a Doctor of Nursing Practice in Mental Health from UMass Global and earned my FNP degree from California State University, Long Beach.
With over 5 years of experience helping individuals manage depression & anxiety, I integrate psychotherapy and medication management to create a treatment plan that fits your goals and comfort level. Whether you prefer therapy, medication, or a combination of both, your care will always be personalized and collaborative.
My goal is to provide genuine care that makes a real difference in your daily life, helping you move forward with clarity, strength, and confidence. My mission is to help individuals overcome challenges and live healthier, more fulfilling lives with purpose. By combining clinical excellence with compassionate care, I ensure that every client is supported.
