Yoni Hochstein
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP, MSEd
Verified
Parents will seek out treatment for a variety of reasons- sometimes it's "just a bump in the road", and other times it has been years of escalating or worsening habits. Some clients are going through a crisis, while others look to build on their strengths and improve their daily quality of living. Life rarely works out the way we intend, and navigating challenges can be particularly difficult for young people. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, my job is to assist clients and their parents in working through life's challenges.
