I have been a multifocal nurse for over 10 yrs and a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner for over 3 years. I graduated from Regis College in 2019. I am Afro Caribbean and enjoy providing culturally sensitive care to clients to improve the quality of treatment and optimize care. I specialize in substance abuse, drug addiction, mood disorders, personal disorders and therapy.

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

In my first session, my client can expect a brief introduction then focus on the client's specific needs and device a treatment plan for optimal outcome. I like to educate clients on their mental health to progress and become a better version of themselves. I recommend therapy for all clients to aid in improving their mental health and find purpose.

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

As a provider who has been a multifocal nurse for over 10 years and nurse practitioner for 3 years, I believe my greatest strength is empathy and compassion. I have also learn to strengthen my communication skills.

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

I enjoy working with clients 18-year-old and older struggling with mental health issues and substance abuse. I also enjoy therapy sessions with clients to help improve their mental health.
