Christina Harsh an ANCC Board Certified Psychiatric‑Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, is a licensed clinician specializing in medication management and supportive psychotherapy. She was an Emergency Room Registered Nurse for eleven years, devoting the majority of her career caring for the underserved communities in South Los Angeles. Her ER experience illustrated the gap between medical and psychiatric care, and how the mind and body connection is often ignored. These gaps in care encouraged Christina to pursue her Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner certificate while receiving her Masters in Nursing from Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science. Through her clinical experience and training working closely with diverse and complex individuals, she has in‑depth knowledge around the diagnosis and treatment for many mental health conditions for clients of all ages, including but not limited to: Mood Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, and Attention Deficit Disorders.
