Adriana Jimenez

Adriana Jimenez

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Monrovia, CA


I am a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and my practice is dedicated to supporting teenage girls (ages 14+) and young women across California. Beyond my clinical background in specialized hospital units, I am someone who values a high-energy, balanced lifestyle. When I’m not in the hospital, you’ll likely find me rock climbing or weightlifting—activities that keep me grounded and remind me of the importance of resilience. I’m also a big sci-fi fan and love to geek out over a great movie or a deep-dive read. As a bilingual provider, I offer services in both English and Spanish, specializing in helping my patients manage ADHD, hormone related emotional mood swings, and binge eating tendencies.

Amy Yoffe

Amy Yoffe

Therapist

Virtual • California


For over 20 years, I've specialized in Palliative & Hospice care, supporting adults as they navigate cancer, chronic illness, grief, challenging family dynamics & end-of-life concerns. I also work with caregivers and healthcare professionals experiencing burnout and emotional fatigue. When you or someone you love is facing cancer or another serious condition, everything can feel uncertain. Together we can create space for the parts of you that feel overwhelmed or scared, and the ones trying to stay strong. You don’t have to carry this alone.

I understand the challenges of navigating the healthcare system and the importance of advocating for yourself or a loved one impacted by illness. As an educator and bedside clinician, I’ve supported countless patients and families in accessing California’s End of Life Option Act. Whether you are a patient or caregiver, I would be privileged to support you on this journey and believe that nobody should have to face such difficulties on their own. I also work with healthcare professionals—doctors, nurses, and social workers—who give so much of themselves and sometimes need space to process and recharge.

Throughout my career, I've worked collaboratively on interdisciplinary teams, focusing specifically on the psychosocial needs of individuals impacted by medical challenges and the family members caring for them.

Britney Jackson

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • California


Welcome, I'm Britney Jackson, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to helping adolescents and adults achieve better mental health through compassionate, evidence-based care. I understand that seeking help can feel overwhelming, and my goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and judgment-free environment where you feel comfortable sharing your story.

I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, trauma-related disorders, mood disorders, stress, insomnia, and other common mental health concerns. Whether you're struggling with persistent worry, low motivation, difficulty focusing, emotional ups and downs, or life transitions, I am committed to helping you find practical solutions that fit your unique needs.

Before becoming a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I spent several years as a registered nurse caring for patients in both inpatient medical and behavioral health settings. These experiences strengthened my ability to recognize complex mental health needs while providing compassionate, patient-centered care. Today, I combine psychiatric evaluations, medication management, psychotherapy, and patient education to help individuals achieve lasting emotional wellness.

My philosophy is simple: every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and empowered. Healing begins with trust, collaboration, and a treatment plan tailored to your goals, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Kiran Dhami

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • California


I am a dual board-certified Nurse Practitioner specializing in both Family Practice and Psychiatric Mental Health. With a foundation in whole-person, evidence-based care, I integrate medical management with psychotherapy and lifestyle interventions to support mental and physical wellness.

My background spans outpatient psychiatry, primary care, home health, and assisted living settings, allowing me to understand the unique needs of patients across all stages of life. I have extensive experience treating mood and anxiety disorders, trauma-related conditions, and chronic medical comorbidities that impact emotional well-being.

I believe in creating a collaborative, compassionate, and culturally sensitive environment where patients feel heard and empowered to take an active role in their care. My approach focuses on building balance—supporting both the mind and body—through medication management, therapy, and integrative care strategies.

Therapist

Virtual • Cerritos, CA


It takes real courage to take this first step toward prioritizing your mental health, and I want to honor that. Beginning therapy can feel vulnerable, unfamiliar, or even intimidating, and I understand that. Maybe you’ve spent a long time in survival mode, developing ways of coping that helped you get through hard experiences but may no longer serve you. That can show up as disconnecting from yourself or others, struggling with boundaries, or carrying a story about yourself shaped by cultural or relational expectations. Wherever you are, we can start exactly where you are.

Beginning therapy can be one of the hardest steps, especially when you have had to navigate mental health stigma, having your emotions dismissed, difficulty prioritizing your needs, or having years living a state of trauma, or survival mode.

I specialize in life transitions, anxiety, and self-esteem concerns. I have a deep passion for trauma work and rebuilding a sense of safety. I frequently work with clients who are overwhelmed with carrying high expectations, including BIPOC individuals.

Therapist

As a Christian therapist, I walk with clients to strengthen and support them in learning self compassion, understanding their worth, finding insight and living wisely. I have studied psychology and marriage and family therapy for over 13 years and have been in practice as a therapist for 7 of those years. I have intentionally learned and applied principles and practices which help clients sustain growth from hurts, unprocessed feelings and lack of direction toward more energy, enjoyment and purposefulness in life again.

I look forward to consulting with you to see if our therapeutic work would fit with you!
