About Us
Welcome to Mental Alive
Mental Alive is a psychiatric practice built around the idea that mental health care should feel personal, not transactional.
We take time to understand your story, not just your symptoms. Whether you're navigating depression, anxiety, ADHD, or something harder to name, we work with you to build a treatment plan that fits your life, your values, and what you actually want from care.
Services are available in English, Haitian Creole, and French.
A Different Kind of Psychiatric Practice
Mental Alive is led by a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner serving adults across Palm Beach County and throughout Florida.
We offer comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and specialty treatments. All in a setting designed to feel welcoming, not clinical. Patients can be seen in person at our Greenacres office or by telehealth across the state. Same-week appointments are often available.
We accept most major insurance plans and offer transparent self-pay pricing for patients without coverage.
Specialty Treatment Programs
For patients who need more than standard medication management, Mental Alive offers two specialty programs that few practices in the area provide.
Spravato® for Treatment-Resistant Depression
For adults whose depression hasn't improved after trying two or more antidepressants. Spravato is an FDA-approved nasal spray treatment administered in our private, monitored treatment room, designed for safety, comfort, and dignity.
Addiction Medicine
Confidential outpatient treatment for substance use disorders, including Suboxone (buprenorphine) for opioid use disorder and naltrexone or Vivitrol for alcohol use disorder. Same-week appointments are typically available, and no judgment is part of the process.
