Meet Karine Nelson

Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Across the Lifespan
My name is Karine, a dedicated nurse practitioner specializing in psychiatric mental health. I am committed to providing compassionate care to individuals across all ages. With a Master’s degree in Nursing from California State University, Los Angeles, I focus on assisting patients with a wide range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia.

Throughout my career, I have worked in various settings, offering both in-person and in-home care. Whether administering infusion therapy for chronic and rare diseases or providing psychiatric evaluations in a clinical environment, my goal is to empower patients and their families with the knowledge and support they need.

Collaboration is key to my practice. I work closely with fellow clinicians, social workers, psychologists, and other specialists to develop personalized treatment plans. My approach blends medical expertise with empathic understanding, aiming for a comprehensive care strategy tailored to each individual's needs.

As a member of professional nursing associations, I am dedicated to continual learning and staying informed on the latest in healthcare advancements. Ensuring every patient receives attentive and personalized care is at the heart of everything I do.
