How do you work with clients with depression?
When working with clients with depression, I use a client-centered approach, often incorporating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help them understand how their thoughts impact their emotions. Together, we identify negative thought patterns and develop strategies to challenge and change them, aiming to improve mood and overall well-being. I also provide medication management when necessary to support their treatment plan.
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.

How do you work with clients with depression?
When working with clients experiencing depression, I take a compassionate, client-centered, and evidence-based approach. I begin by conducting a comprehensive assessment to understand the individual’s symptoms, history, and contributing factors—whether biological, psychological, or environmental. From there, I develop a personalized treatment plan that may include psychotherapy, medication management, or a combination of both. I often incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), behavioral activation, and supportive therapy to help clients challenge negative thought patterns, increase motivation, and reconnect with meaningful activities. I also explore lifestyle factors such as sleep, nutrition, movement, and social connection, as these often play a key role in recovery. Throughout the process, I prioritize creating a nonjudgmental and safe space, empowering each client to move at their own pace while building tools for long-term emotional well-being.

How do you work with clients with depression?
Depression can feel heavy, isolating, and overwhelming. It can make everyday tasks seem insurmountable and leave you feeling disconnected from yourself and the world around you. If you’re struggling with depression, know that you don’t have to carry it alone, and healing is possible. When we work together, I approach depression with a holistic lens, understanding that it’s not just about the mind but also the body, emotions, and energy. I take time to listen deeply to your experiences and work with you to gently explore the underlying factors contributing to your depression. Here’s how we can work through it together: Building Emotional Awareness: Depression often comes with a sense of numbness or disconnection. Through our work, we’ll start by reconnecting you with your emotions and uncovering the underlying feelings that may be buried or unexpressed. Mind-Body Connection: Depression isn’t just in your mind—it affects your body too. We’ll explore the ways your body holds tension, fatigue, and other physical symptoms of depression. Techniques like somatic awareness, breathwork, and grounding exercises can help ease this physical burden and create more space for emotional healing. Changing Negative Thought Patterns: Depression often involves negative, self-critical thinking that can feel hard to escape. We’ll work to gently identify and challenge these patterns, replacing them with more compassionate and realistic perspectives. Practical Tools for Coping: Depression can make it hard to find the motivation or energy to get through the day. Together, we’ll develop small, manageable steps that honor where you’re at while encouraging progress. We’ll also work on improving your sleep, nutrition, and daily routines—things that can make a big difference in lifting your mood. Cultivating Meaning and Purpose: Depression can leave you feeling disconnected from your sense of purpose or joy. Through our sessions, we’ll explore what matters most to you and how to reconnect with the things that bring meaning to your life, even in small, everyday ways. Holistic Practices: I may incorporate other healing tools, such as energy work, meditation, or mindfulness practices, to support your emotional and mental well-being on a deeper level. Sometimes, these practices can help shift stagnant energy and create a sense of calm and renewal. Healing from depression takes time, and there may be ups and downs along the way—but every step you take towards healing is important. My role is to walk with you through that journey, offering support, understanding, and practical tools to help you feel more grounded and hopeful. You don’t have to do this alone—I’m here to support you in every step of the process.
I’m Keri, a holistic practitioner dedicated to supporting your journey toward balance, wellness, and a deeper connection with yourself.

My approach combines mind, body, and spirit—offering personalized care that honors your unique story.
