Every individual is striving to develop or maintain a healthy psychological and social well-being in everyday life. I believe that mental health is an important component of a person’s overall health as all elements of the body and environmental factors are interconnected with each other. I also strongly believe that the success to mental health recovery begins when all individual’s aspects are addressed as a wholeness.

As a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I am successfully prepared to provide holistic, patient-centered care for clients needing mental health services and treatments. Through utilization of evidence-based practices, I continuously make efforts to achieve higher levels of clients’ mental wellbeing. Through collaboration with other healthcare providers, continuous client’s care is coordinated in order to facilitate the successful recovery. Utilizing the integrated approaches to healing and wellness, the holistic healing is achieved when mind, body, and spirit are addressed as a single unit, which further guides me to determine the most appropriate treatment strategy.

I am trained to work with all age groups, genders, and cultures, and my focus is on providing a safe therapeutic care by meeting individual needs of each client. I am experienced in providing care to clients suffering from many psychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia, mood disorders, including bipolar disorder, depression and anxiety, trauma, substance use disorders, as well as various childhood psychiatric disorders. I am also a certified Russian Medical Interpreter.
