Great to meet you!

Hello, nice to meet you! I am Shurma. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with training in psychiatry, addiction, alcohol, and substance abuse. I am eager to connect with you! My passion is to help individuals feel better about themselves: mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically, using a non-judgmental approach. Everyone is unique, and a personalized approach is therefore tailored to provide you with comprehensive mental health care.

A bit about my approach to therapy

At Connecting with Purpose Behavioral Health Care, we provide emotionally focused and supportive therapy as well as a medication management approach based on evidence. Furthermore, we encourage patients to play a pivotal role during the process of receiving care. Moreover, we believe that patients should always have a voice and feel valued, respected, safe, supported, and empowered.

What you can expect from our first session

Through tele-psychiatry sessions, we aim to create a comprehensive and personalized treatment plan that is tailored to your needs. Our goal at Connecting with Purpose Behavioral Health Care is to support you as you develop coping strategies to thrive on your journey toward healing. This is only possible through psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and brief psychotherapy. Ultimately, you should feel cared for and validated. I look forward to working with you!
