Quisqueya Espinal NP

Summary

• I am a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with national recognition from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). I had a long career as a trauma nurse for more than 20 years at Jackson Memorial Hospital before pursuing mental health as a psychiatric nurse practitioner. As a trauma nurse, I learned the impact of mental health in accidents, substance abuse, and chronic medical conditions. As a nurse practitioner, I believe in following medication management protocols and delivering mental health education and training using an integrative lifestyle approach to enhance mental health. I am committed to raising mental health awareness and reducing the stigma surrounding mental conditions. I have experience and training in several evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapies (CBT), with personalized medication management to assist clients in achieving optimal mental health and well-being. I have expertise in treating children and adults who meet the criteria for mood disorders, anxiety disorders, trauma-related disorders, ADHD, and autism. By actively listening to everyone who comes to me and getting the help they need, I encourage them to participate in their mental health journey actively.
