About

About me
My name is Karine, a dedicated nurse practitioner specializing in psychiatric mental health. I am committed to providing compassionate care to individuals across all ages. With a Master’s degree in Nursing from California State University, Los Angeles, I focus on assisting patients with a wide range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia.

Throughout my career, I have worked in various settings, offering both in-person and in-home care. Whether administering infusion therapy for chronic and rare diseases or providing psychiatric evaluations in a clinical environment, my goal is to empower patients and their families with the knowledge and support they need.

Collaboration is key to my practice. I work closely with fellow clinicians, social workers, psychologists, and other specialists to develop personalized treatment plans. My approach blends medical expertise with empathic understanding, aiming for a comprehensive care strategy tailored to each individual's needs.

As a member of professional nursing associations, I am dedicated to continual learning and staying informed on the latest in healthcare advancements. Ensuring every patient receives attentive and personalized care is at the heart of everything I do.
 
Treatment philosophy
My treatment philosophy focuses on compassionate, patient-centered care. I believe in building strong partnerships with my patients and their families. Education is a key component of my approach; I ensure that everyone understands treatment options and medication management through clear communication and hands-on demonstrations. I strive to address the unique needs of each individual, whether managing chronic conditions or navigating mental health challenges. Collaboration with an interdisciplinary team is essential to create tailored treatment plans. My goal is to empower patients to take charge of their health in a supportive and understanding environment. Together, we can achieve the best outcomes for their well-being.
