Darnell Lorick
Hello~ My name is Darnell Lorick and I am a certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, board certified. I am able to provide a variety of psychological and psychiatric services including medication management, evaluation, diagnosis and treatment. I also provide psychotherapy for many of my clients as sometimes people prefer to use one provider for both.
I have psychology , nursing and social work education with years of experience treating a variety of mental/health/social problems.
No worries if you already have another provider, I will happily collaborate with them. I strive to provide the best care possible to improve your mental health concerns.
First session
In the first session we will explore the reasons for seeking treatment and gather history for me to better understand what you have already experienced. We will then explore next steps including goals and possible interventions to help with your mental health. We will go at your pace and comfort level as we work together to understand, improve and evaluate effectiveness of treatment along the way.
Strengths
My strengths as a provider are my holistic approaches to care. I have psychology , nursing and social work education with years of experience treating a variety of mental/health/social problems. I am flexible, an active listener and believe in collaboration with you and your consented providers/family and friends. I am in the helping profession to help you. My goal is to help you obtain your goals, function and live optimally to your fullest potential.
Ideal clients
My goal is to help you move forward on your journey to achieve overall mental wellness and wellbeing. We will work collaboratively to accomplish your goals in the most effective way that meets your needs. I am committed and motivated to help you through open, honest interactions in a safe non-judgemental environment. In my practice , you are the most important part of the success.
Treatment methods
Integrative
I believe you deserve individualized assessment and treatment. As no one plan fits all, I use an integrative approach to start "where you are ready to start" using methods we agree upon. Integrative approach is an evidenced based and holistic methodology that focuses on improving your overall well-being and function. I have been using this approach successfully for years with good outcomes and client satisfaction.
Psychodynamic
Time limited psychodynamic therapy (TLDP) is another methodology used with success. This approach seeks to get to the root of your concerns. TLDP seeks to provide new insight and understanding of past relational experiences rooted in childhood.
