I am Jean-Jeffrey Marcellus, DNP, PMHNP-BC, AGNP-BC, NRCME, a Doctoral prepared Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health & Adult Nurse Practitioner who has over 10 years of experience in Adult Health and Addiction Medicine. I specialize in the treatment of substance use disorders using Medication Assisted Treatment. I focus on the treatment of ADHD, mood disorders, insomnia, and pain. I have extensive experience in treating individuals who are seeking assistance in their recovery journey from: Alcohol, Benzodiazepine, Opiates, Heroin, Kratom, and other Pain Medications. I work hard to create customized and personalized plans to support each of my patients’ sobriety journey. I understand the challenges that patients face in accessing healthcare, especially during the pandemic when I honed my skills in telemedicine to ensure that I can make care accessible for my patients. I am culturally sensitive, enabling me to serve a diverse patient population.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our initial meeting, my priority is to gather a comprehensive history from you, allowing me to understand your background, experiences, and current concerns fully. This process provides you with a platform to express how you're feeling and articulate your expectations regarding mental health care. I create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can openly share your thoughts, emotions, and aspirations. By actively listening to your needs and goals, I can tailor our therapeutic approach to best meet your unique requirements and provide the support and guidance you seek on your mental health journey.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a provider, I believe my greatest strengths lie in my down-to-earth demeanor and my empathetic approach, which allow me to connect with individuals on a personal level and create a sense of understanding and validation. I am committed to providing bespoke care tailored to each person's unique needs and concerns, recognizing that one size does not fit all in healthcare. My active listening skills enable me to truly hear and empathize with my patients, fostering open communication and building trust. I approach care from a holistic perspective, considering not only the physical aspects but also the emotional and social dimensions of well-being. By creating a judgment-free and safe environment, I aim to empower individuals to share openly and engage actively in their healthcare journey with confidence.
