Getting to know Aleksander Porres Milian
I am a highly accomplished healthcare professional with a rich and diverse background in
medicine and nursing. Born in Havana, Cuba, I graduated as a Doctor in Medicine from
University of Havana in 1995.
In 2005, I moved to the United States, where I continued to pursue my passion for healthcare.
I became a Registered Nurse in February 2014 and further advanced my expertise by earning my
credentials as an Advanced Nurse Practitioner specializing in Family Medicine in 2019.
My dedication to providing comprehensive care led me to specialize further, becoming a
Psychiatry Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in 2023. My career reflects my unwavering
commitment to serving others and my adaptability in navigating diverse medical fields and
systems.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I’m glad you’re here and taking this important step toward improving your mental well-being. As your psychiatric provider, my goal is to create a safe, collaborative, and judgment-free environment where we work together to understand your needs and develop a personalized treatment plan.
What You Can Expect
1. A Collaborative Approach:
Your care is a partnership. I’ll listen carefully to your concerns, experiences, and goals, and together we’ll make decisions about your treatment — whether that involves medication, therapy recommendations, lifestyle adjustments, or a combination of these.
2. Comprehensive Evaluations:
During our first session, we’ll complete a thorough psychiatric assessment. This helps me understand your history, current symptoms, and life context so we can create a care plan tailored specifically for you.
3. Ongoing Support & Follow-Ups:
Mental health care is a process. We’ll schedule regular follow-up appointments to monitor your response to treatment, adjust the plan as needed, and continue building coping skills and strategies.
How Virtual Visits Work
Confidential & Secure: All sessions are conducted through a HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform to ensure your privacy.
Comfort & Convenience: You can join sessions from home or any private, quiet space — just ensure you have a stable internet connection.
Preparation Tips: Bring any relevant medical records, a list of current medications, and questions or topics you’d like to discuss.
What I Ask of You
Honesty & Openness: Share as much as you feel comfortable about your symptoms, history, and goals.
Consistency: Attend scheduled appointments and take medications (if prescribed) as directed.
Communication: Reach out if you experience side effects, new symptoms, or life changes that could affect your treatment.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
1. Initial Consultation & Comprehensive Evaluation
Our first session is usually 45-60 minutes and focuses on understanding you — your story, symptoms, medical history, and goals. During this time, I will:
Review your psychiatric, medical, and family history.
Explore current symptoms, mood patterns, stressors, and lifestyle factors.
Screen for conditions such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma, or substance use.
Discuss your goals, expectations, and what you hope to achieve from treatment.
This evaluation helps us build a complete picture of your mental health so we can create a plan that’s both personalized and evidence-based.
2. Diagnosis & Treatment Planning
Based on the assessment, I’ll provide you with a clinical impression or diagnosis (if appropriate) and we’ll discuss treatment options together. This may include:
Medication management: Exploring if psychiatric medication is recommended, how it works, and what to expect.
Psychotherapy recommendations: Referral to counseling or therapy if indicated.
Lifestyle strategies: Suggestions for sleep, nutrition, exercise, and stress management that support mental health.
Together, we’ll develop a treatment plan that fits your needs, values, and preferences.
3. Follow-Up Appointments & Medication Management
Follow-up visits are typically 20–30 minutes and scheduled every 4 weeks initially, then spaced out as you stabilize. These sessions focus on:
Monitoring how you’re responding to medication or other interventions.
Discussing any side effects or concerns.
Adjusting dosages or trying alternative approaches if needed.
Continuing psychoeducation and skill-building to support your progress.
4. Mental health care is a journey, not a one-time appointment. Throughout our work together, I emphasize:
Collaboration & Communication: You are an active partner in all treatment decisions. I encourage you to share how you’re feeling, even between visits. We’ll regularly revisit your goals and adapt your care plan.
