What should a new client know about working with you?

As a bilingual board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, I am trained to provide care with a dual emphasis on the treatment of the whole patient through psychopharmacology and brief psychotherapy across the lifespan. I have been a nurse for over 6 years, working in various settings, including psychiatry and preoperative. I spent five years working in psychiatry before I was licensed as a nurse, where I discovered my love for raising mental health awareness.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I encourage, advise, and assist you in finding strategies to cope with your most difficult situations. Using compassion, understanding, honesty, and a straightforward approach. Building a strong therapeutic alliance with patients is foundational to my practice. Each individual comes with their own lived experiences, and I honor those narratives as I collaborate with them in their path to healing.

I felt heard. My concerns were taken seriously. I was also provided options, nothing forced onto me and I made the choice of what route I wanted to take. Highly recommend!
I would like to thank you for all the care and dedication you’ve shown. Your support has helped me feel truly seen and understood, and I’ve come to trust and rely on your guidance more than I ever thought I could. Knowing I have a safe space with you has made a real difference in my healing process. I’m genuinely grateful for everything you do.
I’ve been seeing Ms.Brito, and I honestly can’t recommend her enough. She actually listens, doesn’t rush, and takes the time to understand what you’re going through. It’s rare to find someone in mental health care who makes you feel seen and safe. She’s knowledgeable, respectful, and really good at explaining things in a way that makes sense. I always leave our sessions feeling more grounded and supported.
I’m very please with NP Brito level of care. She is very attentive, a good listener and knowledgeable. The level of knowledge she has is evident; her understanding without judgment makes me feel comfortable. She educates me as to the available and recommended treatment plan. Her openness and transparency makes feel comfortable . I’m at a better place emotionally, mentally and physically thanks to her treatment plan and knowing I have someone that understands my needs . Thank you for your professionalism and help.
Very caring and supportive. Listens to what you want as a patient and offers her opinion. Never pushes anything on you and allows you to heal and grow as you want.
Alejandra is truly one of a kind. As someone dealing with a multitude of issues, I can honestly say she has made such a huge difference in my life. She’s warm, compassionate, and actually listens which is rare these days. She’s patient, never judgmental, and always makes me feel safe and seen. From the very first session, I knew I was in good hands. She takes her time to understand what you’re going through and works with you to find what actually helps not just throwing meds your way and sending you off. I’ve felt more supported and more balanced since starting with her than I have in years. She’s just getting started in her practice, but she’s already doing wonders and I know she’s going to help so many people. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and will walk with you through the hard stuff this is your girl. Highly recommend ??
