We want you to get the care you deserve.

I was born and raised in Dallas, Texas and then obtained my B.A. in Psychology from Princeton University. Following Princeton, I worked for Teach for America as a bilingual elementary school teacher, administrator, and curriculum developer. During this time, I received my Master of Education from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, TX. Realizing the great need for mental health services in this community, I decided to follow my passion and earned my Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner degree at Vanderbilt University. In order to better provide holistic care to my patients, I also studied functional medicine through the Institute for Functional Medicine.

Hello! My name is Everest and I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner who is also certified in functional medicine. I work to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health and expand access to care through advocacy and education. I take a holistic approach to healing and believe in the connection between the body and mind. Integrating lifestyle, diet, medicine, and other innovative technologies, I view each patient individually to help them take control of their health and improve their quality of life and wellbeing.

In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors at the beach or in the mountains. I love to waterski, hike, cook, travel, and spend time with friends and family.

Functional medicine is “root cause” medicine. It is is looking at the whole person as an individual to determine the underlying cause of the presenting symptoms. When applied to mental health, the functional medicine approach investigates cause causes depression, anxiety, insomnia, inattention, etc. instead of just prescribing a “one-size-fits-all” medication. To do this, we must consider the entire patient, including their gut, hormones, inflammation, chronic diseases, metabolism, immunity, toxins and cellular function. Using multimodal approaches, we can then truly heal patients and improve their overall health and wellness.
