Strength-Based Psychiatrists in El Cajon, CA

Hi! I've been a board certified psychiatric nurse practitioner for over 17 years and I love working with children, teens and adults to help them achieve and maintain excellent mental health and wellness. I specialize in tele-health services and, while I diagnose and treat most psychiatric conditions, I especially enjoy working with people with learning differences, ADHD, mood disorders, children with adjustment issues, and women who are experiencing fertility, pregnancy and postpartum related issues. I am a life long learner and educator and believe in a collaborative approach with each individual I work with.

Conventionally and holistically trained, I'm a psychiatrist also certified in Functional Medicine. Applying an integrative and functional approach to psychiatry provides a more complete model to treating chronic illness. We partner to evaluate how your unique biology, history, lifestyle and environment are contributing to disease. Taking a wider lens to view the systems involved in underlying disease we can focus on healing root causes, rather than just trying to cover up the symptoms. Seeking short term relief while planning long term recovery, together, we seek the right balance of body, mind and spirit.
