Ingrid Rivera, APRN, RN, NP

Ingrid Rivera, APRN, RN, NP

Adult Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
NV
I am a Primary Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. My approach to mental healthcare is to continue to provide quality, compassionate, and comprehensive mental health services to our communities. I enjoy being an advocate for my community's mental health needs. I am passionate about mental health, and my goal is to continue to provide quality, compassionate, and comprehensive mental health services to our communities. My theoretical approach to mental health is to develop an individualized treatment plan for each patient in hopes of meeting therapeutic goals. I typically provide care to people 18-year-old and up. Conditions I am more comfortable treating are mood disorders, anxiety, psychosis and trauma. Effective communication is always important when trying to figure out the right treatment plan for patients, to build a strong therapeutic alliance, and is crucial for patients' trust. In addition, using techniques such as active listening, empathy, sympathy, and open-ended questions can encourage patients to express themselves freely during the sessions I realized the huge need in mental health and how limited access to mental health services can be for some people in the community while working as an RN. That is the moment when I decided what kind of NP I wanted to be. I wanted to be part of the mental health help system by becoming a psychiatric nurse practitioner. I found the desire to be a resource by being a strong advocate for this population that, at times, can be afraid to openly ask for help because of the social stigma that mental health brings with it. There are so many things that make me concerned and emotional about mental health illness. However, the biggest is when someone completes suicide. I believe suicide can be prevented. Suicide completion can be prevented by providing consistent support. Consistency is the key factor to reduce suicidal rates, with that consistent understanding and support.
