In the first session with a psychiatric nurse practitioner, several expectations might arise: Assessment and Information Gathering: The initial session typically involves a comprehensive assessment. You can expect questions about your mental health history, current symptoms, medical history, and any medications you're taking. Details about your concerns, triggers, and the impact on your daily life may also be discussed. Building Rapport and Trust: A significant part of the first session involves building a rapport and establishing trust. The psychiatric nurse practitioner aims to create a safe and comfortable environment, encouraging open communication and honesty. Goal Setting and Treatment Plan: Expect to discuss your goals and expectations for treatment. The nurse practitioner might outline initial treatment options, potential approaches, and explain what to expect in the upcoming sessions. This could involve medication, therapy, lifestyle adjustments, or a combination of these. Education and Information: The nurse practitioner may provide information about your condition, treatment options, and what the therapeutic process will entail. This could involve psychoeducation about your diagnosis and guidance on coping strategies. Establishing Boundaries and Confidentiality: Expect a discussion about the boundaries of the therapeutic relationship, including confidentiality, limits to confidentiality, and how information will be handled. Next Steps and Follow-up: Toward the end of the session, there may be a plan for the next steps, including follow-up sessions, referrals to other professionals if necessary, and any initial recommendations for self-care. Overall, the first session with a psychiatric nurse practitioner is aimed at understanding your needs, establishing a treatment plan, and laying the groundwork for a therapeutic relationship. It's an opportunity to share your concerns, set goals, and begin the process toward improved mental health and well-being.

She really listened and helped me make sense of what I was experiencing. She offered a clear plan of action and took the time to answer all my concerns. I felt included in the process—like I was an active part of my own therapy, not just being talked at. Her approach felt collaborative, supportive, and genuinely helpful. I left feeling hopeful

Janice made me feel very comfortable and cared for as a client. She was supportive and kind, but also direct and informative. I left our first session feeling very positive.

Janice has been a God Send to me. At a very down time for me mentally, she has been more concerned than ANY of the Therapist/Nurse Practitioners I have seen over the past year. I am very grateful for her. She showed me empathy, care and helpful solutions to the thoughts I had racing around in my mind. Thank you Janice ❤️
