My name is Rebeca Mendez, APRN, FNP-C, PMHNP-BC, and I am a dual board-certified Nurse Practitioner in psychiatry. I have been in the field of psychiatry since 2017. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults who are dealing with depression, mood disorders, anxiety, ADHD, autism, and other psychiatric diagnoses. I provide comprehensive, evidence-based psychiatric care that includes thorough initial evaluations, individualized medication management, supportive therapy, and collaboration with patients.
My approach is holistic and patient-centered. During our first appointment, I conduct a detailed assessment to understand your history, current symptoms, and treatment goals. From there, we work together to develop a personalized plan that supports both your mental and overall health.
I understand that seeking mental health care is an important and sometimes difficult decision. My goal is to provide a safe, respectful and supportive environment where you feel heard and involved in your treatment. I am dedicated to improving mental health outcomes and supporting individuals and families through high-quality, compassionate psychiatric care.
