Iris Arana alonzo, NP

Nurse Practitioner (Psychiatry)
8403 Colesville Rd, Ste 1100, Silver Spring, MD
Board-certified as a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I specialize in anxiety and depression for adults, including Spanish-speaking patients who want to be seen and understood in their first language. My ideal patients are those looking for relief from overwhelming worry, persistent sadness, low energy, or panic so they can feel better, function well, and enjoy their lives again. They want a clinician who listens, explains options clearly, and builds a plan with you, not for you. That’s where I come in. I believe in creating a safe, respectful, and collaborative space where every patient feels truly heard and supported. Whether you're taking your first step or continuing your journey, I'm here to help you reduce the burden of anxiety and depression so you can feel more like yourself again — with greater peace, energy, and hope for the future.

Getting to know Iris Arana alonzo

My ideal patients are those looking for relief from overwhelming worry, persistent sadness, low energy, or panic so they can feel better, function well, and enjoy their lives again.

What should a new client know about working with you?

DISCLAIMER: We are not able to accept Medicare or Medicaid plans at this time. My path to becoming a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner began with a deep desire to help people who silently struggle with anxiety and depression. Having witnessed the impact of untreated mental health challenges in my community and family, I pursued advanced training to provide quality, culturally sensitive care. These experiences deepened my commitment to accessible and compassionate mental health care, especially for Spanish-speaking adults. Now, I bring patience, cultural understanding, and clinical expertise to every patient I work with.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I specialize in evidence-based medication management for anxiety and depression, ensuring compassionate, collaborative, and culturally responsive care at all times. During our time together, I take the time to truly listen, explain treatment options clearly in English or Spanish, and work with you to find the right plan for your lifestyle and goals. I'm passionate about helping you feel heard and empowered. This means combining medication when helpful with practical strategies so you can regain hope, energy, and balance. My style is warm, direct, and practical, and tailored to your unique needs, preferences, and goals. You can always expect a safe, nonjudgmental space where moving forward feels possible.
