PMHNP, 24 years of experience
I am a dual board-certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 24 years of medical experience. I practice holistically, addressing physical and mental health to provide comprehensive care. With a deep commitment to compassion and empathy, I strive to create a supportive and understanding environment for all my patients. I genuinely enjoy caring for people from all walks of life and am delighted to have the opportunity to care for you. Your well-being is my priority, and I look forward to partnering with you on your health journey.
In your first session with me, you can expect a warm and welcoming environment where we begin by getting to know each other. We will discuss your medical history, current concerns, and goals for therapy and medication management. I will ask questions to understand better your physical and mental health and any cultural or personal factors that may influence your well-being. We will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. This initial session is an opportunity for you to share your story and for us to establish a foundation for our therapeutic relationship.
As a provider, my greatest strengths lie in my extensive experience, compassionate approach, and holistic practice. With over 24 years in the medical field and dual board certification in family and psychiatric mental health, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to my practice. My compassionate and empathetic approach ensures patients feel heard, valued, and supported. Additionally, my holistic perspective allows me to address physical and mental health, providing comprehensive and integrative care tailored to each individual's unique needs.
I am best positioned to serve young women, women of childbearing age, and postpartum women. I am passionate about supporting these clients and am eager to help them reach their optimum mental well-being. My experience and dedication to addressing their unique challenges allow me to provide compassionate and effective care tailored to their needs.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, goal-oriented treatment approach that I use to help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns and behaviors. By working together, we explore how your thoughts, feelings, and actions are interconnected. I then guide you in developing healthier thinking patterns and coping strategies to manage and reduce symptoms of distress, ultimately leading to improved emotional well-being and daily functioning.
Culturally sensitive therapy recognizes and respects the cultural backgrounds and experiences of clients. In our sessions, I consider how your cultural identity, values, and beliefs influence your experiences and perspectives. By doing so, we can address your concerns in a way that honors your cultural context, ensuring that the therapy is relevant and respectful to you. This approach fosters a supportive and inclusive environment, promoting a deeper understanding and more effective therapeutic outcomes.
Grief therapy is designed to help individuals navigate the complex emotions and challenges that come with loss. In our sessions, I provide a safe and supportive space for you to express your feelings, share memories, and explore the impact of your loss. Together, we work on developing coping strategies to manage grief, finding ways to honor your loved one, and gradually rebuilding a sense of hope and purpose. The goal is to support you through the grieving process and help you find a path to healing and adjustment.
