Integrative psychiatry is an approach to mental health care that combines conventional psychiatric treatments with complementary and alternative therapies. It emphasizes treating the whole person, considering their physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual well-being. This approach recognizes that mental health issues often have complex underlying causes and may benefit from a multifaceted treatment approach. 

I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC). My professional role is similar to that of a psychiatrist. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I am qualified to prescribe medication, including controlled substances, provide therapy and coaching, conduct evaluations, and more.

I provide HIPAA-compliant Telehealth Visits for medication management, integrative treatment and therapy to residents of Florida, Delaware and Ohio.

At this time, I have partnered with Alma (a billing service) to offer services to clients of Aetna, Cigna and Carelon Insurance.

For those that have other insurance providers I partner with Reimbursify to help fill Out of Network Requests for Reimbursement.

I also see Self-Pay patients.

I see patients from 6 years old to 64 years old.

A mental health emergency occurs when an individual experiences severe psychological distress or displays behaviors posing immediate danger to themselves or others, such as suicidal or homicidal ideations/plans, severe psychosis, or uncontrollable agitation. It necessitates urgent intervention to ensure safety and well-being. In such situations, contacting emergency services or crisis intervention teams is crucial for immediate assessment and support. Recognizing and responding promptly to signs of a mental health emergency can help prevent harm and facilitate access to appropriate treatment and assistance. 

If you are experiencing a mental health emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest ED.
