I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with licenses in Maryland, California, Arizona, DC, Connecticut and Virginia. My journey in mental health care has been driven by a passion for helping individuals live their best lives. I have received extensive training in psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and evidence-based treatment modalities. With a focus on adult populations, I specialize in addressing a wide range of mental health issues, including mood disorders, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and adjustment disorders.

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

During our initial visit, we create a plan that will guide us through our sessions. Understanding one's likes and dislikes help create a mutual trust and respect to promote treatment compliance. My strong clinical skills, such as listening, communication, empathy, and building trust with my clients, are my assets to bridge the gap in accessing mental health services. I work closely with my clients needs to ensure compliance.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Ify is an highly motivated and compassionate professional, with goal to help patients to live their best lives, my communication is a two-way interval, I encourage client to be actively involved in their own care as it will promote treatment compliance and build trust.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
