Serving the Greater Houston community as a nurse practitioner since 2010, I have supported adults facing complex mood, cognitive, and behavioral concerns. Mental health becomes more complicated when medical conditions, neurodivergence, aging, or long-standing patterns are part of the picture. Many of my clients come to me feeling frustrated by treatments that haven’t fully addressed the whole story. They are looking for clarity, careful medication guidance, and a provider who understands how emotional, cognitive, medical, and family factors interact — in English or Spanish.

I try to help each person I work with feel understood and appreciated as a whole human being with strengths that can be mobilized, as well as with their own emotional suffering. This enforms me how how I relate to you, your child, teen, or family. Medications are used if necessary, and if progress is made and they are no longer needed, are lowered and possibly stopped. If they don't help I make every effort to adjust, change, or combine to get the desired result.

FAQ - Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Psychiatrists
How can psychiatrists help with traumatic brain injuries?
Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are a broad range of brain injuries resulting from physical trauma to the head, ranging from mild concussions to severe damage caused by penetrating wounds or serious accidents. These injuries typically lead to a combination of physical, cognitive, and emotional symptoms, often requiring specialized psychiatric care. Psychiatrists play a critical role in the recovery process from TBIs addressing both the direct effects of the brain injury and the psychological challenges associated with adapting to a disability. In addition to managing the primary symptoms of TBI, they help patients cope with related complications, such as chronic pain, persistent headaches, and emotional strain that may accompany major life changes.

What does psychiatric treatment for traumatic brain injuries involve?
TBI management is often complex, and psychiatrists with expertise in this area possess specific knowledge of how various medications to manage TBI symptoms—such as anticonvulsants to prevent seizures—can be used effectively. They also prescribe treatments for the emotional aspects of TBI, such as antidepressants and anti-anxiety medications. However, medication is only one part of comprehensive care, and behavioral therapies are also central to psychiatric treatment for TBI. Psychiatrists may recommend or provide evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps patients reframe negative thoughts, develop coping strategies, and reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. In addition, psychiatrists frequently work alongside neurologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and other mental health professionals as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation plan.

How can I find a psychiatrist who specializes in traumatic brain injuries?
Not all psychiatrists are equipped to treat TBIs, so finding a psychiatrist knowledgeable about TBIs specifically is essential. The Psychology Today directory is a helpful resource for locating psychiatrists with a TBI specialization. Using its search filters, individuals can identify professionals with relevant expertise and, if preferred, refine their search by selecting providers who share similar identities—such as gender, religion, or cultural background. When evaluating potential psychiatrists, consider asking about their experience in treating TBIs and their approach to both medication and behavioral interventions. It's also important to confirm the accessibility of their services—whether they are available in-person, via telehealth, or both—and whether they accept your insurance plan.
