Great to meet you!

As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) I am an advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) with an experience of over 22 years of healthcare experience, specialized in mental health to assess, diagnose, and treat psychiatric conditions, providing therapy, prescribing medications, and collaborating with other healthcare professionals to improve patient outcomes. To mention but a few, I treat individuals with alcohol and substance use disorders, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorders, autism, schizophrenia, personality disorders and many more

A bit about my approach to therapy

Non-Judgemental approach: Diagnoses and treats common psychiatric issues, illnesses and mental health crises. Prescribes and manages medications and other treatments. Provides individual, group and family psychotherapy, including talk therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Offers counseling services to people with long-term conditions.

What you can expect from our first session

As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner I am trained to cultivate empathy through active listening, showing curiosity about patients' lives, demonstrating respect and kindness, and employing communication techniques to understand and address your unique needs and experiences. We will travel together from setting short-term goals to Long-term goals. More importantly, for you to realize that you are not the "mental Illness".

Open-minded
Empowering
