First session
In our first session together, we will start with brief introductions then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for use work through in follow- up sessions. I am especially passionate about creating a safe space for those who feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or hesitant about seeking help.
Strengths
My approach to psychiatric care is a collaborative and a whole person focused combing evidence-based medication and supportive therapy. I take into consideration patient's preferences, values, and needs at the forefront of decision-making. This involves active communication, shared decision-making, and tailoring treatments to align with the patient's goals and beliefs. This approach ensures that medical care is more personalized and it takes into account the individuality of each patient. Medications can be used to treat symptoms of mental illness. I will be able to determine the right medication options and recommended dosage. There will also be follow up visits that will allow me to check in about the effects of the medication to determine patient's response and assess for any side effects. However, with respect to medication management: I DONOT PRESCRIBE STIMULANTS AND CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES!
Ideal clients
As your psychiatric nurse practitioner, I serve patients who are silently struggling with emotional, physical and mental illness. Through a blend of evidence based psychiatric care, thoughtful medication management and holistic support, I provide not just symptom relief to my patients, but those who are open to medication when appropriate, lifestyle changes, mind-body connection. I combine medical precision with empathy. I educate, not just prescribe medication. I individualize care (no "one-size-fits-all" treatment).
Treatment methods
Person-centered (Rogerian)
A patient- centered treatment approach is a healthcare strategy that places the patient's preferences, values, and needs at the forefront of decision-making. It involves active communication, shared decision-making, and tailoring treatments to align with the patient's goals and beliefs. This approach ensures that medical care is more personalized and it takes into account the individuality of each patient. I combine thoughtful medication management with supportive care that considers your lifestyle, stressors, and if desired your spiritual foundation. You will never be rushed, dismissed, or treated like just another case.
