Arkay is a Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) licensed in Nevada since 2021. She earned her Master of Science in Nursing with a specialization in Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practice from Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science in California (2020), and her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Angeles University Foundation in the Philippines (2008). She currently practices in both inpatient and outpatient psychiatric environments, specializing in psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and treatment planning across the full age span.
Her Approach
Arkay works with people who need psychiatric evaluation and medication management—whether they’re navigating their first psychiatric diagnosis or adjusting treatment that hasn’t quite worked yet. She sees adults, teens, children as young as six, and older adults. If you’ve felt rushed or unheard by previous providers, or if you’re unsure whether medication is right for you, Arkay takes the time to understand your whole picture before making any recommendations.
Arkay listens closely to what came before—your family’s history with mental health, the timing of when things shifted, what you’ve already tried. She speaks Filipino and English, and she brings cultural attunement to her work, recognizing that psychiatric care looks different across communities. She is comfortable with crisis, with complexity, and with the moment when someone first decides that medication might be worth trying.
