A Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner hailing from Los Angeles, I boast over 17 years of diverse clinical expertise, primarily in emergency nursing. Dedicated to underserved communities, my journey led me to pursue a Master's in Nursing at Charles R. Drew University of Science and Medicine in 2020, graduating Magna Cum Laude.
Although I specialize in most of the common mental health disorders, I'd have to say my biggest strengths are helping people with depression, anxiety and ADHD. I'm also good in helping patients find alternatives to medication when dealing with depression and anxiety.
Passionate about behavioral health, I actively work towards reducing the stigma surrounding mental illness. Currently, I serve as a mid-level provider for adult outpatient populations, finding joy in educating and caring for my patients.
