I am an advanced practice Nurse with duo certification as a Psychiatric Mental Health Practitioner and a Family Nurse Practitioner. I've practiced in the role of PMNHP for the past 3 years and have managed patients with mental health problems for the past 15 years in primary care settings. I perform psychiatric evaluations, diagnose, and prescribe treatment regimens for mental health illnesses within my scope of practice. I implement psychotherapeutics, prescribe psychopharmacological medications, and provide psychoeducation for all age groups. However, my preference is for ages 18 years and older. Most of all I support evidence-based clinical practices and overall client safety.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Supportive
For the past 4 years, I've achieved great success in managing patients with mental health problems through psychopharmacological therapy and an adjunct treatment with a supportive psychotherapy regimen. My behavioral health clinical practice utilizes a combination of treatment options to optimize therapeutic approaches for wrap-around services. These approaches have been shown to benefit clients with acute illness as well as those who have chronic mental health problems.
Motivational Interviewing
My professional career as an advance practice provider incorporates expanded experience in primary care for more than 15 years and the last 4 years focused on mental health. I utilize a compassionate Motivational Interviewing style counseling with medication management. This enables the provider to implement client-centered approaches while allowing client's the freedom to participate through a collaborative process that is supported by active listening and empathy in a nonjudgemental environment. This style is tailored to the client's needs, progression and evaluation of outcomes.
