Medication Management in Texas

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with advanced training from the University of Texas at Arlington. I bring more than ten years of experience in providing comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, diagnostic assessments, and individualized treatment for individuals ages 6 to 65. My clinical background spans inpatient psychiatry, partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient programs (IOP), outpatient clinics, and telehealth services. Before becoming a psychiatric provider, I worked extensively in emergency nursing, which allows me to approach acute and complex situations with confidence, compassion, and clinical clarity. My treatment philosophy centers on the understanding that medication management is just one part of a much broader therapeutic process. Meaningful, lasting progress requires a holistic approach—one that incorporates cognitive and behavioral change, explores family and relational dynamics, and takes into account the environmental and social factors that shape a person’s mental health. I collaborate closely with each patient to identify what they can influence and adjust in their daily lives, empowering them to take an active role in their healing and growth. My long-term goal for every individual is to first achieve stability and then build toward sustainable improvement. Together, we set meaningful objectives and work step-by-step toward reaching them, ensuring that progress is both achievable and enduring.
