Compassionate Medication Treatment Provider for Youths, Adults, & LGBTQ+
I am a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner who specializes in helping individuals heal from mental health challenges. I partner with my clients to develop plans of care that address their specific needs & goals. I work with a wide range of simple & complex mental health conditions which include but are not limited to substance use disorder, depression, anxiety, bipolar, schizophrenia, nightmare disorder, insomnia, ADHD, OCD, etc.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a background in nursing across a range of mental health settings, including outpatient care and higher-acuity environments. My training has focused on assessing, diagnosing, and treating conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma-related disorders, and substance use, using both medication management and psychotherapy. I completed advanced graduate education in psychiatric-mental health nursing, which prepared me to provide holistic, evidence-based care across the lifespan and to collaborate closely with other members of the treatment team.
I know that reaching out for help takes courage — and I want to make that process as simple and comfortable as possible. My practice focuses on anxiety, depression, and addiction, and I believe real progress happens when you feel heard and respected every step of the way. I take time to understand what's going on in your life before we talk about next steps, whether that's medication, therapy, or both. My goal is to give you clear information and practical support so you feel more in control of your mental health.
Dr. Anand Jayanti is a Board-Certified Psychiatrist with a passion for helping individuals and couples enhance their communication and emotional understanding. Born in India and raised throughout America, Dr. Jayanti's multicultural upbringing has deeply influenced his empathetic approach to psychiatry. As a child, he was often described as a "thinker," a trait that led him to channel his feelings through work. It was during his young adulthood that he realized the importance of not only thinking, but also openly expressing, a journey that continues to shape his professional and personal life. Dr. Jayanti earned his medical degree from Texas A&M College of Medicine and continued his training at The University of Texas at Austin. He completed his residency at the UT Health Science Center in Tyler and pursued a fellowship in Child & Adolescent Psychiatry at UT Dell in Austin. Dr. Jayanti believes that improving communication is key to enhancing wellbeing in relationships. Throughout his life, he observed how misunderstandings between people often stemmed not from bad intentions but from a lack of tools and insights to understand and communicate their feelings. Dr. Jayanti sees patients struggling with relationships, marital issues, depression, anxiety, attention deficit, and trauma.

Michael M. Zavala, DNP, APRN, FNP-C, PMHNP-BC is a Texas and New Mexico based Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner focused on holistic integrative psychiatry.
I help adults experiencing obesity, anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, and burnout/moral injury rediscover their sense of excitement and engagement with work, loved ones, and life by offering a specialized approach for those motivated to uncover the root cause of their symptoms, with medication as an option, NOT the only option.
As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP‐BC) with Radiance Psychiatry and Wellness, I take a whole‐person approach to mental health care. I recognize that emotional well‐being is shaped by many factors — physical health, stress, relationships, and life experiences — and I work with clients to address each of these areas.
I have experience supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, and life transitions. My approach blends medication management with supportive therapy, patient education, and lifestyle‐based strategies. I strive to create a welcoming, culturally sensitive space where clients feel empowered, understood, and supported.
My goal is to help you build resilience, gain insight, and move toward a healthier, more balanced life.
I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with more than two decades of experience in emergency medicine, nursing, education, and behavioral health. My passion for caring for veterans, first responders, and their families has been shaped by both my professional experience and my life as the wife of a United States Marine Corps veteran and career firefighter.
My journey in healthcare began in 2003 as a youth member of Emergency Medical Services. I went on to serve as both a volunteer and paid EMT and eventually became Sergeant of the Montclair Ambulance Unit, where I developed a Community Response and Education Program focused on outreach, wellness, and resilience.
I earned my BS in Criminal Justice with a minor in Juvenile Corrections and Forensics, followed by my BSN from Caldwell College, MSN in Nursing Education from the University of Phoenix, and PMHNP degree from Purdue University. Throughout my nursing career, I have worked in emergency departments, Level I Shock Trauma Centers, corrections, flight nursing, case management, mobile intensive care, and during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Education has remained an important part of my career. I have taught nursing students in psychiatric nursing, pediatrics, obstetrics, epidemiology, and critical care and have presented nationally on PTSD prevention and resilience among first responders.
Today, I serve as a PMHNP and Director of Family Wellness and Resilience for Heroes Anchor. I specialize in compassionate, trauma-informed care for veterans, first responders, and their families, while also working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, relationship challenges, emotional dysregulation, and major life transitions.
My goal is to create a space where you feel understood as a whole person—not simply as a diagnosis.
Im a board certified NP, University of Texas Alumni with 8 years of mental health experience. I believe in comprehensive care and looking at it individual as a whole. My specialty of interest includes postpartum depression, ADHD and depression/anxiety.
