Caridad Martinez Watson, Nurse Practitioner

Caridad Martinez Watson helps children, adolescents, teens, adults, and seniors in Florida find clarity and stability through thoughtful psychiatric medication management at LifeStance Health. She partners with patients and families across Florida to carefully evaluate symptoms, listen to lived experiences, and develop treatment plans that support emotional balance, daily functioning, and long-term mental wellness. As a prescriber, Caridad provides medication management for a wide range of mental health needs, with a clinical focus on ADHD, anxiety, and depression. She works with children, adolescents, and teens navigating behavioral and emotional challenges, as well as adults and seniors managing mood disorders and complex psychiatric concerns. Her care integrates medical insight with a person-centered approach, ensuring that treatment decisions are collaborative, culturally responsive, and tailored to each individual’s stage of life. While Caridad does not limit her work to a single specialty area, she is deeply committed to supporting patients through complex and evolving mental health presentations. She values continuity of care and thoughtful medication adjustments, especially when symptoms overlap with life transitions, family dynamics, or medical conditions. Her practice includes working with diverse populations such as LGBTQ+ individuals, military members and veterans, and individuals with autism spectrum disorders, with additional populations supported as well. Caridad offers services in Spanish, helping reduce barriers to care and foster clear communication for patients and families who prefer this language. Outside of her clinical work, she enjoys listening to music, cooking, dancing, and spending quality time with her family, activities that help her stay grounded and connected. She continues to serve patients throughout Florida through LifeStance Health and welcomes those seeking attentive, individualized psychiatric medication management.
