Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners (PMHNP)

Irene Nelson, APRN, PMHNP

I’m Irene Nelson, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a Master of Science in Nursing from Chamberlain University. I have extensive experience in emergency medicine and psychiatric care, specializing in diagnosing and treating mental health conditions like depression, bipolar disorder, and PTSD for both adults and children.

As the co-owner of Serene Path Wellness and a veteran with six years of active duty in the Air Force, I bring a unique perspective to my practice. I currently serve in the Nevada Air National Guard as an Emergency Room Registered Nurse.

In my free time, I enjoy quality moments with my dogs, reading, and watching horror films. Let’s embark on a journey toward better mental health together.

Counselors & Therapists (CPC & MFT)

Freddy Valinia, LCPC

I’m Farbod “Freddy” Valinia, co-owner of Serene Path Wellness and a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. My journey began at a community health center, where I provided mental health counseling to individuals of all ages facing socioeconomic and cultural challenges. My focus on grief and bereavement, particularly through hospice work, deepened my understanding of diverse psychological issues related to loss.

I also collaborated with Crisis Text Line, offering crisis interventions via SMS, especially for self-harm and suicidality. I prioritize building strong, trusting relationships with my clients through warmth and acceptance. By blending Person-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), I help clients explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. My commitment is to support clients on their therapeutic journey with compassion and effectiveness.

Primary Care

Jennifer Cortes-Klein, DNP, APRN, FNP-BC

I’m Jennifer Cortes-Klein, a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC) with a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree from the University of Portland. My residency in family medicine and background in critical care nursing have shaped my holistic approach to treating both adults and children with a range of acute and chronic conditions, including hypertension, diabetes, and asthma. I also specialize in integrative medicine, partnering with patients to support their unique health and wellness needs.

Having deep roots in Las Vegas, I graduated from Clark High School’s AMSAT program and earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Nevada - Las Vegas in 2009. My early nursing career included roles in intermediate and intensive care, where I actively worked to improve inpatient care and volunteered as a camp nurse for children with Autism.

After completing my doctorate in 2020, I returned home to serve the Las Vegas community, bringing my passion for healthcare back to the area. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, live music, and exploring local food spots with my husband and toddler. Let’s work together to achieve your health goals.
