Hello, I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, mood swings, ADHD or substance abuse? Maybe you are not sure of what is happening with your mental health. Remember you are not alone and there is always hope. I specialize in treating patients who are going through mental health problems. I am highly skilled and experienced in medication management and can get you the right medication and dose to give you the relief and peace of mind that you deserve. Nobody understands you better than you understand yourself. This is why I engage my clients in their treatment decisions. While I find the best treatment options for the clients, their experience and suggestions are incorporated to provide the best outcome for them. I provide affordable psychiatric treatment with a non-judgemental attitude.

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

Clients can expect a structured but welcoming introduction aimed at understanding their needs and building trust. In addition, I will discuss potential diagnoses and outline treatment options, which could include therapy, lifestyle changes, and/or medication.

Empathy and Compassion: Building trust and rapport by understanding patients' emotions and experiences. 2. Active Listening: Ensuring patients feel heard by attentively listening to their concerns, validating their feelings, and tailoring treatment to their specific needs. 3. Holistic Approach: Considering the full scope of patients' lives—mental, physical, social, and environmental factors—to create comprehensive treatment plans. 4. Evidence-Based Practice: Using up-to-date research to guide treatment decisions, ensuring the best possible outcomes. 5.

I use CBT techniques alongside medication management to equip patients with practical coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and promote long-term resilience in managing anxiety, depression, and ADHD
