What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with extensive experience in psychiatric nursing. Currently, I work at Psych4U, where I provide comprehensive psychiatric assessments and develop individualized care plans. My commitment to patient-centered, evidence-based care drives me to collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure optimal outcomes for my patients.
With a strong background in both inpatient and outpatient settings, I have honed my skills in medication management, crisis intervention, and patient education. My previous roles as a Registered Nurse have equipped me with the ability to assess patient needs effectively and deliver compassionate care to those facing severe mental health challenges. I am passionate about promoting mental health awareness and improving treatment adherence through education and support.
