Hello there! My name is Anabelen, and I am a family nurse practitioner certified by the AANP Board. I completed my Bachelor's degree in Nursing from Mount St. Mary's College and worked as a Registered Nurse for nine years before obtaining my Master's in Nursing from UCLA. Currently, I am pursuing a Doctorate in Nursing with a focus on lifestyle medicine. My passion is working collaboratively with patients to improve their health and quality of life. I firmly believe in a holistic and evidence-based approach to care for all the patients I see. Wellness and health are my top priorities. Therefore, I lead by example by living an active and purposeful life. I focus on the lifestyle medicine pillars, which include stress management, restorative sleep, good nutrition, physical activity, social connections, avoidance of risky substances, and nature, the 7th unofficial pillar of Lifestyle Medicine. I am also a certified yoga teacher, and in my free time, I love spending time in nature with my dog and family. Dancing and rebounding are my go-to fun exercises. Lastly, I am passionate about promoting period literacy and improving access and education for young women. I am thrilled to bring this holistic approach to your health journey with Eden Health. I look forward to partnering with you to help you reach your health goals.
