Awa Ndiaye
I am a dual-board-certified family (FNP) and psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP). I have over 15 years of excellent quality healthcare experience. I have worked in multiple settings: hospital, home care, primary care, psychiatry care clinics, insurance and hospice. My approach to mental health care is patient-centered, focusing on tailoring interventions to meet the unique needs of each individual. I integrate evidence-based practices with innovative strategies to support not only mental health but also emotional, physical, and social well-being. My primary goal as a provider is to relieve mental suffering associated with psychiatric disorders and improve mental well-being through a holistic approach. I include medications, therapy and other non-pharmacological approaches to ensure that your goals are met.
I integrate evidence-based practices with innovative strategies to support not only mental health but also emotional, physical, and social well-being.
First session
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me propose a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Strengths
The ability to develop a strong relationship with your clients is critical to their ability to respond and heal. Therapeutic rapport leaves each patient feeling safe and respected.
Ideal clients
I love working with clients who are aware of their mental health issues and are ready to improve it. Those clients are eager to get better and will do the daily necessary work to achieve and see the progress. They are ready and just need the tools to make this goal a reality and I will be there to help all along the way.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT helps take a close look at your thoughts and emotions. You’ll come to understand how your thoughts affect your actions. Through CBT, you can unlearn negative thoughts and behaviors and learn to adopt healthier thinking patterns and habits.
