Diana Manjarres is a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner authenticated by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). She worked as a critical care nurse for many years.

You're overwhelmed. Maybe it’s anxiety that doesn’t let you rest, mood swings that disrupt your days, or a heaviness that’s hard to explain. You might be navigating identity questions, relationship strain, or the emotional toll of feeling misunderstood. You want relief—but more than that, you want to be seen, respected, and supported as your full self. Whether you’re a teen figuring things out, a young adult under pressure, or someone in the LGBTQ+ or transgender community seeking affirming care, your goal is simple: feel better, think clearer, and live more fully. You deserve a provider who listens and truly gets it.
