Therapists in Florida

Hello! I'm a dedicated and certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with a doctorate degree in nursing practice (DNP). I have great experience in diagnosis, treatment, and management of mental illnesses and substance use disorders. I graduated from Florida International University (FIU), one of the most prestigious state universities in Florida. My passion is to help people with mental illnesses such as major depressive disorder, anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, attention deficit disorder (ADD), attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), schizophrenia...etc. I did my internship at Delray Center for Healing, a well-known outpatient mental health facility located in Delray Beach, Florida. Under the supervision of my preceptor, I was involved in patient intakes, treatment planning, medication management, brief psychotherapy, and follow ups for patients with mental illnesses and substance use disorders. Then, after my graduation, I started working for different employers as a psych NP. Before my psych NP career, I was a registered nurse for over 10 years. I began my nursing career at Boulevard Rehabilitation Center, where I served as a Licensed Practical Nurse in long-term care and rehabilitation units, before moving on to a staff RN role at Lakeside Medical Center in the Med/Surg and Tele units. Then, I continued my nursing journey at Boca Raton Reginal Hospital where I played different roles, including relief charge nurse and staff RN. As a relief charge nurse, I used to organize the unit, provide direct patient care, and administer medications. I also educated patients / family members and collaborated with interdisciplinary staff to ensure the best outcomes for my patients. I continue to stay engaged in research and have a keen interest in the impact of social media on mental well-being. My academic pursuits include aiming for a PhD in the future. *Specialties •Psychiatry •Mental Health *Conditions treated •Depression •Anxiety •Bipolar disorders •Schizophrenia •PTSD •ADHD •Addiction •Insomnia •Mood disorders •Panic attacks •OCD •Anger Management •Female Psychiatry •Obsessive-Compulsive •Pediatric Psychiatry •Trauma and PTSD •Geriatric Psychiatry •Alcohol Use •Autism •Borderline Personality (BPD) •Chronic Impulsivity •Dementia •Eating Disorders •Hoarding •Oppositional Defiance (ODD) •Schizoaffective disorders •Polysubstance Use •Sleep or Insomnia •Substance Use *Practice description We do initial psychiatric evaluation, follow-up, and brief individual psychotherapy for all age groups as regulated by the Nurse Practitioner’s scope of practice.
