As a psychiatric/mental health nurse practitioner, with over twenty years of experience in mental health; I provide personalized mental health care, including assessment, medication management, therapy and education. My aim is to empower clients to improve their mental wellbeing and lead fulfilling lives through a compassionate and collaborative approach. I understand how to assess situations, analyze information, and make informed decisions about diagnosis and treatment of mental health problems. Additionally, I provide compassionate, empathetic, non-judgmental care while respecting diverse cultural backgrounds, beliefs, and values.

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

In our first session together, we will begin with brief introductions , establish a therapeutic environment for our interactions, then complete a comprehensive assessment and treatment plan tailored for your specific needs. This will include discussing mental health concerns, medical history, and current symptoms, while ensuring a safe and nonjudgmental environment for open dialogue. We will discuss your goals for treatment and I will provide psychoeducation about your condition and available treatment options, including medication and therapy. The session typically involves collaborative goal-setting and may include initial assessments such as screenings for depression, anxiety, or other mental health conditions. Overall, clients can anticipate a supportive and holistic approach to addressing their mental health needs.
