Clanege Francois

My name is Clanege Francois, I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 7 years of nursing experience with 3 years focus on inpatient psychiatry and veteran-focused care. I specialize in comprehensive psychiatric assessments, diagnosis, psychopharmacologic management, crisis stabilization, and evidence-based treatment planning. I work with diverse populations across the lifespan and am committed to providing faith-based, trauma-informed, and patient-centered mental health care that is culturally competent and accessible.

I provide a faith-based holistic approach to psychiatric care that integrates evidence-based mental health treatment with the patient’s spiritual beliefs, values, and faith practices as a source of meaning, resilience, and healing. I believe this approach respects the client’s belief system and incorporates it only when desired by the patient, ensuring ethical, culturally sensitive, and patient-centered care.

Clients can expect a warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative environment during their first session. We’ll focus on understanding your concerns, personal goals, and overall well-being, mind, body, and spirit. Together, we’ll clarify what you’d like to work on, discuss treatment options, and begin a plan tailored to your needs. The goal of the first session is to help you feel heard, supported, and hopeful, with a clear sense of next steps and outcomes we’ll work toward together.
