Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Psychiatrists in 92131

Hello, I look forward to meeting you! My name is Brittnai and I'm a Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner In the state of California. I specialize in ADHD, Anxiety, Bipolar, Anger Management, Depression, Insomnia/Sleep Issues, LGBTQIA+/Gender/Sexuality Topics. Maternal Mental Health, Men's Issues, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Stress Management and Women's Issues. I work with an amazing group of colleagues at Lavender, an online psychiatry and therapy office, where we believe psychiatric care shouldn't be expensive nor impossible to access.

I believe in an integrative approach with a focus on wholeness and client-centered care. Using these foundations, I strive to provide comprehensive care that incorporates complementary treatments, genetic testing, lifestyle modification, therapy, and medication management. My goal is to foster an environment of trust and understanding so that we can work together to achieve your goals. I am easily accessible even outside of clinic hours via text, email, or phone.

I have a strong belief in mind-body wellness and encompasses an integrative approach using complementary treatments, pharmacogenetic testing, lifestyle modification, and medication management. I strive to create a welcoming and trusting environment allowing us to work together in addressing your concerns and achieving positive outcomes. Clients are offered 50% longer appointment times than the industry standard to ensure all questions are addressed and instill a sense of confidence in our plan. Emphasizing quality care and accessibility, I am easily reachable even outside of regular appointment times via text, email, or phone.

I am board-certified to see all ages but my primary focus is to empower women on their wellness journey by offering an approachable and causal setting for treatment.

I can't imagine an ideal client because I see a broad range of clients and I enjoy helping them all. The typical patient who comes to me needs help with depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, addiction, or another disorder and may have a family history of these symptoms or diagnoses. They are usually wanting to understand their symptoms and gain an accurate understanding or diagnosis. Medication may be appropriate for some of these patients. For patients who do not find relief from medication or who experience side effects, we offer TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) which is non-drug treatment for depression and anxiety
