Sherifat Forcey
Hello! I'm Sherifat Forcey, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care for adults. I specialize in comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and individualized treatment plans for conditions such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, ADHD, and other mental health concerns. My approach is collaborative, respectful, and patient-centered. I believe in taking the time to listen, understand your unique experiences, and work with you to develop a treatment plan that supports your goals and overall well-being. I am currently accepting new adult patients for virtual appointments in Colorado and Minnesota.
First session
During your first session, we'll take time to get to know each other and discuss what brings you to treatment. I'll ask about your current concerns, mental health history, medical history, medications, lifestyle, and any goals you have for your care. This comprehensive evaluation helps me better understand your unique needs and develop a personalized treatment plan. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you feel comfortable sharing your experiences. Together, we'll discuss treatment options, which may include medication management, education about your condition, and recommendations for therapy or other supportive resources when appropriate. You'll have plenty of opportunities to ask questions, and we'll work collaboratively to develop a plan that aligns with your goals and promotes your overall well-being.
Strengths
One of my greatest strengths is my ability to listen with empathy while providing thoughtful, evidence-based care. I believe every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and involved in decisions about their treatment. I take the time to understand not only your symptoms but also how your mental health affects your daily life, relationships, and personal goals. My approach is collaborative, patient-centered, and culturally sensitive. I strive to create a welcoming, judgment-free space where you can openly discuss your concerns. Together, we'll develop a treatment plan that is tailored to your unique needs, preferences, and goals. My focus is on helping you achieve meaningful, lasting improvements in your mental health while building a trusting therapeutic relationship.
Ideal clients
My ideal clients are adults who are seeking compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care and are ready to take an active role in improving their mental health. They may be experiencing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, ADHD, or other mental health concerns that are affecting their daily lives, relationships, or overall well-being. Whether you're seeking care for the first time or looking for a new provider, I strive to create a supportive, judgment-free environment where you feel heard and respected. I enjoy working with individuals who value a collaborative approach to treatment and are motivated to work toward meaningful, lasting improvements in their mental health and quality of life.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) principles as part of a comprehensive treatment approach to help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. During medication management visits, I incorporate CBT-informed strategies by helping clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns, develop healthier coping skills, and practice practical techniques to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, stress, and other mental health conditions. While my primary role is psychiatric evaluation and medication management, I believe that combining evidence-based medication treatment with CBT techniques and collaboration with a therapist, when appropriate, leads to the best outcomes. My goal is to empower clients with skills they can use in everyday life while working together to improve their overall mental health and quality of life.
