Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

Esther is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). She earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Texas at Arlington and her Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) from Walden University, specializing in Psychiatric Mental Health Advanced Practice Nursing with a focus on adolescents, adults, and families.

She has worked as a psychiatric registered nurse in inpatient hospitals and brings over 11 years of clinical nursing experience across inpatient, outpatient, and telehealth settings. Esther is passionate about providing quality, compassionate mental health services for adolescents 13 and older and adults.

She is well-versed in treating anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and chronic mental illness through psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and psychotherapeutic intervention. She incorporates holistic mindfulness and creates a comprehensive, individualized plan of care for each client — prescribing medication only when necessary and encouraging lifestyle changes such as healthy eating, meditation, yoga, and breathing exercises.

She believes every individual is unique, assessing bio-psycho-social factors with a strong emphasis on stress and trauma. Her practice is evidence-based, patient-centered, and culturally sensitive, incorporating mindfulness and motivational interviewing. She treats each client as a person with respect and dignity, not as a disorder.

“My ultimate goal is to make sure my clients are mentally stable and able to live their best, happiest, healthiest lives.”
