PMHNP, 20 years of experience
I’m a compassionate Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and Adult-Gerontology Nurse Practitioner with over two decades of experience in healthcare. As an Afro-Caribbean woman and a mother, I bring a deep understanding of how cultural backgrounds and personal experiences shape mental health. I specialize in psychotherapy and medication management for a range of conditions, from ADHD and OCD to severe mental illnesses like bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. My practice combines mental and physical wellness, including recommendations for nutrition and lifestyle changes to help you achieve sustainable emotional balance.
During our first session, we’ll get to know each other. I’ll ask about your personal history, current challenges, and goals for treatment. We’ll begin to explore your mental health concerns and develop a plan tailored to your needs, whether that includes therapy, medication, or both. My aim is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and understood.
My greatest strengths are my ability to listen deeply and provide empathetic, culturally competent care. I have a passion for helping people, and I believe in the power of holistic care that addresses both the mind and body. My personal experiences as a mother and navigating fertility challenges allow me to offer a unique, compassionate perspective to those facing similar journeys. I’m committed to helping you find balance and wellness in every area of your life.
I am best suited to support individuals navigating mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, and severe mental illnesses like bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. I also specialize in helping women facing fertility treatments, pregnancy, and the transition into parenthood. If you're seeking culturally aware, trauma-informed care with an integrative approach to mental wellness, I'm here to guide you on your journey to healing.
I use CBT to help you recognize and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. Together, we’ll work on identifying negative thoughts, challenging them, and developing healthier, more constructive ways to cope with challenges in your daily life.
My approach is future-oriented and goal-driven. We focus on finding practical solutions to your current challenges, helping you move forward by building on your strengths and identifying what’s already working in your life.
I provide a safe and supportive environment, sensitive to past traumas that may affect your mental health. My goal is to ensure you feel secure, respected, and empowered in your healing process, with an understanding that trauma impacts everyone differently.
As someone from a diverse background, I deeply understand the psychological toll that racial trauma can take. I provide a compassionate space where we can explore these unique experiences and work through the emotional and mental health impacts of racial discrimination
My practice is rooted in empathy and understanding. You are the expert on your own life, and my role is to support you by listening without judgment and fostering a safe environment where you can grow and heal at your own pace.

This was my first session with Natasha, and I really appreciated her holistic review of my history, symptoms, and circumstances to think about some solutions to try. The solutions were a blend of supplements, prescription meds, and other behavior changes to consider. She talked through the benefits and side effects of her recommendations, which was a great way to collaborate together on some supports for me to try. I look forward to our follow up.
