We work with patients seeking to uncover the root cause of their symptoms and provide evidence-based solutions. Symptoms of anxiety, ADHD, or mood disorders can manifest in several ways and interfere with day-to-day functioning. If you are experiencing sadness, mood swings, irritability, tiredness, low energy, trouble concentrating, poor sleep, or appetite changes, you have come to the right place! At PsychCare Health & Wellness, we begin with a comprehensive assessment and work with you to devise an evidence-based treatment plan that focuses on your unique needs. We also offer pharmacogenomic tests to guide medication management.
Gloria is a doctorate-prepared Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner licensed in New Jersey. She has over a decade of experience working with teens & adults in various psychiatric settings, including inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, addiction and recovery, partial hospitalization programs (PHP), and intensive outpatient programs (IOP).
Following the initial comprehensive and diagnostic evaluation, we will work with you to devise a treatment plan that integrates cognitive-behavioral modifications and medication management. At PsychCare Health & Wellness, you can rest assured that you will be received with warmth and compassionate care. Call or email us today today!
