Nasreen Rahman
I have been working as a psych mental health nurse practitioner for the past 6 years in a nonprofit organization, but I have been in healthcare for the past 25 years and out of those 14 years I have been working as a family nurse practitioner with patients from diverse backgrounds in the family practice as well as urgent care setting. I have diverse life experience which includes teaching high school, college and nursing students preparing them for their bachelor's and master's programs. I had the opportunity to live in East Africa (Tanzania), the Philippines, Thailand, and Pakistan. I also had the opportunity to travel throughout the world. This gives me a good understanding of different cultures, religions, and ethnicities and I can provide culturally competent care. While I lived overseas, I also had the opportunity to work with the United Nations. I was also involved in lots of charitable programs for the underprivileged population under the UN umbrella. I enjoy working as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and I am very compassionate and try my best to help my patients and provide them with the best care.

My initial education includes a Master in Biology (MSc), Masters in Philosophy (MPhil) and a Master in Public Health (MPH). But later, I decided to go back to school and graduated as a Family Nurse Practitioner program from the University of Phoenix, Arizona. I completed my Doctorate in Nursing Practice (DNP) and Psych Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) program from Brandman University, Irvine California.
First session

Strengths
I approach every patient with compassion and understanding, listening closely to their concerns. My goal is to provide personalized care that honors their autonomy, empowering them through education and collaboration so they feel confident and supported in every decision
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
My approach to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and transforming unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors that contribute to challenges. The emphasis is on the present rather than the past, while building practical coping strategies to manage emotions and navigate life changes through effective problem-solving.
Trauma-Focused CBT
I focus on providing compassionate support through psychoeducation, relaxation techniques, stress management, and cognitive coping strategies to gently help individuals process and heal from traumatic memories
