Jo Ann Brown is a Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience. She specializes in delivering empathetic and compassionate mental health wellness. Her focus is to come along side of clients and help them to navigate through life's circumstances and challenges. Life changes are similar to seasons changes. There are times of joy and laughter as well as grief and sorrow. It is our mental state of mind which governors our success or failure during these times. I am here to ensure a supportive and nurturing journey toward your mental health wellness.
The first session whether medication management or therapy only is to aim for a relaxed session. I spend a few minutes telling them about me and then I am interested in hearing what are their goals and expectations. This will help ensure we are both on the same page and a good fit for one another.
My greatest strength and advantage is that I come with a wealth of knowledge and experience. I also have a dual certification as a Family Nurse Practitioner. I have experience with diabetes and weight loss.
I come with a wealth of knowledge and experience. I am comfortable in treating the adult and older population, ages 18-64.
CBT is utilized in Psychiatry as a gold standard in mental health wellness. I use it with Medication Management appointments and with clients who prefer only therapy.
This therapy is often used in conjunction with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I utilize it to help clients discover their inner peace. This is where you grow to achieve your maximum level of self-worth and find fulfillment of life.
