You have it all together. You're responsible, dependable, and high-achieving. Others rely on you. You manage work, family, and expectations - often without slowing down.
But internally you're anxious. Your mind doesn't shut off at night. You replay conversations. You carry pressure quietly. You feel exhausted from being "the strong one."
You may be navigating a major life transition - motherhood, career shifts, relationship changes, relocation, or identity growth. You might love your faith and still feel stuck or overwhelmed.
You're high-functioning - but you're tired of doing it alone.

As a psychiatrist trained in both psychopharmacology and psychotherapy, I approach care through a psychodynamic and relational lens. I don’t view medication as a stand-alone fix, but as a tool within a deeper, collaborative process. My goal is not only to reduce symptoms but to help you better understand the patterns, histories, and internal conflicts that shape your experience of suffering and healing.
In our work together, I won’t just ask, "Are the meds working?" We'll explore the interplay between various domains of your life, including personal history, relationships, work, and emotional functioning in a supportive framework.

FAQ - Hispanic and Latino Psychiatrists
What can a Hispanic and Latino psychiatrist help with?
Psychiatrists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health conditions, often using a combination of therapy and medication. For many in the Hispanic and Latino individuals, finding a psychiatrist who shares and understands their cultural identity can be an important step toward feeling seen and supported. A provider with shared cultural roots or cultural competence may have a more intuitive understanding of cultural values and may also be better equipped to address sensitive issues like acculturation challenges or the stigma that can prevent individuals from seeking mental health support.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Hispanic and Latino psychiatrists?
Psychology Today's online directory is a helpful tool that can help aid your search for a Hispanic or Latino psychiatrist. The directory allows you to filter your search specifically for Hispanic or Latino psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs). When reviewing a provider’s profile, look for key information that signals cultural competence—such as being fluent in Spanish or being knowledgeable about certain topics like immigration-related trauma, family dynamics, or bicultural identity. Also, consider practical factors like their offered therapeutic styles (e.g., CBT, family therapy), whether they provide telehealth or in-person sessions, and which insurance plans they accept to ensure that care is both accessible and a good fit for you.
