Dr. Geralda Gelus-Jules

Hi, my name is Geralda Gelus-Jules, DNP, PMHNP-BC, and I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner. I work with adults and young adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, mood changes, and life stressors.

My style is warm, down-to-earth, and supportive. I believe healing happens when you feel truly heard, respected, and never judged. Together, we will explore what you are going through, identify patterns, and build a plan that may include medication, coping skills, lifestyle changes, and referrals for therapy when needed.

As a nurse practitioner, I combine medical knowledge with a holistic view of you as a whole person—mind, body, culture, family, and environment. My goal is to help you feel more stable, hopeful, and in control of your life again.

I am currently accepting new clients and would be honored to support you on your mental health journey.

I approach care with warmth, respect, and a non-judgmental attitude, making sure you feel safe and truly heard. I use a trauma-informed and culturally sensitive lens by looking at your mind, body, history, and environment, not just symptoms. Together, we discuss options, make shared decisions about treatment, and move at a pace that feels comfortable so you can heal and feel more in control of your life.

In our first session, my goal is for you to feel comfortable and heard:

• We’ll start with a simple introduction and I’ll explain how I work.
• I’ll ask what brought you in and listen to your story at your pace.
• I’ll review some basic history (mood, sleep, past treatment, medical issues, family, etc.).
• I’ll gently check on your safety and stress level.
• We’ll talk about what might be going on and I’ll explain things in clear, simple language.
• Together, we’ll create a next-step plan (follow-up visits, possible medication options, therapy, and coping tools).

By the end of the visit, you should have a better idea of our prospective sessions and how we’ll work together going forward.
