My name is Bernard Kofi Marfo. I am a Board Certified Family Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner licensed to practice in Texas, Iowa & Arizona. I am a managing partner at Hope Psychiatry & Associates PLLC, an outpatient mental health clinic located at Frisco, Texas. I have diverse clinical background in critical care, mental health & psychiatric consults, diagnosis, treatment of common psychiatric problems, illness, crises, and pharmacologic management. My practice module is based on individual client-centered and culturally competent treatment approach. I pride myself in working with clients through compassion, empathy, respect, and humility to reduce the stigma of mental illness, promote mental health, and improve their overall health. I look forward to be part of the team helping you to get your life back and living happily.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then drive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me formulate a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
I strive to build a strong therapeutic provider-client relationship based on trust, respect, and empathy.
I love working with all clients to provide the best mental health support they may need. My Clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality.
We adapt motivational interview to increase our client's drive towards behavioral change.
Our practice model incorporating CBT involves helping clients to change their thinking patterns as a way of resolving mental health challenges.
