Meet our Psychiatric Nurse
Destajo, Jose
"I view my role as a cultivator of growth and healing, much like a gardener tends to a garden. Each patient is a unique seed with the potential to bloom and flourish, and my job is to provide the necessary nourishment and care for that growth to occur. To me, healing is not just about treating symptoms, but about addressing the root causes of mental illness and fostering a sense of community and belonging. I believe that the therapeutic relationship between nurse and patient is a powerful tool in this process, and I strive to create a space of trust, empathy, and acceptance. As a psychiatric nurse, I am committed to helping patients discover their inner resilience and strengths, and to guiding them towards a brighter future where they can thrive and flourish."
Meet our Psychiatric Therapist
Perez, Rudolpho
LCSW
"As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I believe that community is more than just a group of individuals living in the same area; it is a family that nourishes and supports one another. The healing power of a strong community cannot be underestimated, as it provides a sense of belonging and connection that is essential to our mental and emotional wellbeing. By creating a safe and inclusive space for individuals to come together, we can foster a sense of community that allows us to heal and grow together. Whether it is through group therapy, community events, or simply spending time with loved ones, the power of community is truly transformative. Let us work together to build stronger, more resilient communities that prioritize the importance of nourishing and healing one another."
