Hi, I am Mirandine, a board certified family psychiatric mental health practitioner. I have been in practice for almost a decade, helping clients ages 8 and older with an array of mental illnesses so that they can become the best version of themselves in every aspect of their lives. My clients are never in a rush when they are in a session.
The discussion is usually focused on introductions, past/current history and treatment, current challenges, what is the client hoping to accomplish and treatment goals from the client. Then together, we come up with the best treatment plan to meet the client’s mental health needs. They plan may include medications and therapy based on what is best for the client. Clients can expect to have an honest discussion and feel comfortable during the session.
Having worked many different setting including the: inpatient setting, crisis setting, outpatient setting. Having helped clients across the lifespan regardless of what mental illness they suffer from. Having clients be the leader in their own treatment and care. Establishing that relationship with clients where they feel heard, understood, and safe. Having the ability to provide individualized treatment to all my clients whether they speak English, Spanish, French, Haitian Kreyol.
As long as the client has the desire to get better I am willing to work with them individually to help them achieve their mental health goals. I help any one age 8 and older, anyone who struggles with depression, anxiety, bipolar, ADHD, insomnia, substance use disorder, PTSD, OCD, etc.
Psychoeducation peovided clients with a better understanding of their illness and how to cope with such illness. I use different treatment modalities to help clients including psychopharmacology and psychotherapy.
