An ideal client would be cisgender minority women although all genders are equally accepted. These individuals typically face adversities related to gender roles, bias, home environment stress, imposter syndrome, and day-to-day feelings of acceptance in society. My goal as the provider typically would include not only diagnosing and treating acute psychiatric conditions but also providing a safe space to share their day-to-day stressors.

My approach is based on integrative psychiatry, which uses medications, therapy and complementary medicine to treat the whole person, not just the symptoms. I address the combined impact of sleep, lifestyle, relationships, nutrition and chronic medical conditions on well-being, and use cutting edge tools like genetic testing to guide personalized treatment with medication and supplements. I consider the patient’s cultural background in my assessments and I can provide treatment in Spanish, Portuguese, French and Italian. My goal is to help my patients create lasting changes and build vitality, resilience and purpose in life.

Are you tired of psychiatric providers not getting to know you and treating you like a number rather than a person? Are you looking for someone to manage your medications and also care about you and your process? Are you hoping to feel connected to your medication management provider rather than it feeling like a transactional interaction? My goal as a psychiatric nurse practitioner is to create an authentic relationship with my patients so that we can collaboratively work on achieving their goals.

Jermilla is a controlled substance-free provider. When it comes to controlled substances, I strongly believe there is a level of long-term oversight needed that telehealth does not provide. An in-person relationship is better suited to managing and monitoring use of these medications. As a telehealth provider of psychiatry services, Thriveworks will follow evidence-based best practices and step out of the controlled substance space. This includes any benzodiazepine, hypnotic sleep aid and stimulant.

Strength-Based Psychiatrists
How does strength-based therapy work?
During strength-based therapy sessions, the therapist will ask about an individual’s experiences of stress, pain, or trauma with the goal of orienting the client to view themselves as a survivor rather than a victim, and focusing on their strengths rather than on their weaknesses. In framing a client’s personal narrative along these lines, the therapist and client work together to identify existing skills that can be harnessed.
Is strength-based therapy evidence-based?
Strength-based therapy is an evidence-based treatment that has been studied extensively and shown to be effective across domains. The treatment has been found to be particularly effective in helping individuals who are experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mental health concerns. Strength-based therapy has been used by therapists to help clients for more than 60 years.
How long does strength-based therapy last?
There’s no precise timeline for strength-based therapy. The duration of treatment depends on the individual’s specific needs and goals and the severity of their concerns. Some individuals may find they achieve their therapeutic goals quickly, while others might benefit from ongoing support and guidance in order to continue progressing.
How effective is strength-based therapy?
Clinical research and decades of practice have shown strength-based therapy to be an effective treatment to improve mental health and well-being for many conditions. The treatment can engender a sense of connection and collaboration between the therapist and the individual, fostering a positive therapeutic relationship. For individuals with narcissistic tendencies, strength-based therapy may be less effective, as the focus on the individual’s strengths may undermine the work needed to honestly assess the challenges the individual faces.
