Great to meet you!

Dr. Claudette L Blake, DNP, APRN, MSN, PMHNP-BC, is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a background in psychiatry, oncology, correctional health, geriatric care, and healthcare leadership. Her broad professional experiences strengthen her clinical perspective and decision making. Together, your mental health becomes the priority.

My approach to therapy

My approach to care is patient-centered, collaborative, and evidence-based. You are the priority. I provide a confidential and supportive space where your concerns are heard, your feelings are validated, and your treatment goals guide the plan of care.

Together, we will identify your symptoms, stressors, strengths, and needs, then choose the best course of treatment to support your mental health, daily functioning, and overall wellness.

What you can expect from me

During your first session, clients can expect a confidential, respectful, and supportive environment. We review your current concerns, mental health history, symptoms, stressors, treatment goals, and medication or therapy needs.

This is an opportunity to ask questions, share what you hope to gain from treatment, and begin a plan that feels appropriate for your needs.

My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and supported as we identify the best path forward for your mental health care.
