Joshua Shyngle

Hello Beloved! My name is Josh, and I am a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC).

My ministry is built on a plain foundation: you take the lead, and I am here to support you. Our Provider-Client dynamic is best described as a partnership. You are the expert; I am your personal assistant. My role is to collaborate with you while providing clinical expertise, guidance, and unmitigated support to help you achieve the goals that you set for yourself.

As a queer Nigerian-American man who grew up in rural Florida, I understand firsthand what it means to navigate unique challenges related to identity, safety, and belonging — and that experience shapes the affirming, nonjudgmental space I curate in my practice.

I strive to create a safe space by utilizing a client-centered and humanistic approach to treatment. I provide care under the belief that each client has just as much knowledge and expertise to bring to treatment as I do, and therefore work to make my services as collaborative as possible.

When meeting for the first time, I try my best to collect as much background information as possible, in order to add context to the symptoms and barriers you are experiencing. I will ask about your current environment, past childhood experiences, history with mental health, and more. It is also a great opportunity to answer any questions you have!
