Psychiatrists in New York, NY

I hold a post-master Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner certificate from the University of Cincinnati, OH. I also received my Master of Science in Nursing Education from Walden University and my Bachelor in Nursing from Adventist University of Health Sciences. I am fluent in Spanish and Portuguese.

During consultations, I focus on being supportive and understanding while at the same time being a very thorough professional. I have over thirty years of experience in various levels of care, assisting and guiding clients to adjust to new life situations. Taking the necessary time to listen to you helps me make the best evaluation and together we come up with a treatment plan. Before establishing my practice in the United States, I have also had a wide range of experience in Brazil, where for fifteen years, I worked as a clinical psychiatrist and taught medical students and psychiatry residents.I lecture in conferences as well.

Minha abordagem é baseada na psiquiatria integrativa, que utiliza medicamentos, terapia e medicina complementar para tratar a pessoa como um todo, não apenas os sintomas. Eu abordo o impacto combinado do sono, estilo de vida, relacionamentos, nutrição e condições médicas crônicas no bem-estar, e utilizo ferramentas avançadas como testes genéticos para orientar o tratamento personalizado com medicamentos e suplementos. Considero a origem cultural do paciente em minhas avaliações e posso fornecer tratamento em espanhol, português, francês e italiano. Meu objetivo é ajudar meus pacientes a criar mudanças duradouras.
