My background:
Hello! I’m Cynthia.
I am an advanced practice nurse with a doctorate in nursing practice with a concentration in advanced practice leadership. I am dually board-certified as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM). I am also a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Provider (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International.
Throughout my years as a certified nurse midwife and women’s health nurse practitioner, I’ve provided essential care and support across various settings. From leading group prenatal care in innovative research projects to offering perinatal mental health visits via telehealth, my approach has always been holistic and adaptive, ensuring accessibility and comfort for all my patients. My expertise includes providing prenatal and postpartum services, labor support, and birth management. This breadth of experience enables me to offer a safe space for exploration and healing, addressing issues like postpartum depression, anxiety, grief following a miscarriage, and the emotional roller coaster of fertility journeys.
I am here to affirm that you are not alone. Together, with my support at Flourish Counseling & Wellness, we can take steps toward healing, connection, and embodying the truest version of yourself. We will develop a personalized treatment plan that best supports your current symptoms, lived experience, and goals. A treatment plan could include any combination of lifestyle changes, supplements, alternative and complementary therapies, and psychotherapeutic and/or pharmacologic options. Wherever you are in your mental health journey, let’s work together to help you, Flourish.
