About
Currently working as a Nurse Practitioner Contractor (since February 2023) in order to work toward a PMHNP post-graduate certificate, becoming eligible for national board certification. Psychiatry has proven to be a uniquely perfect fit, with a growing passion for people in need of mental health services.
Goals:
- Develop a healthy family/work balance, giving my children the best
possible experience they can have, helping them to succeed.
- Provide the most therapeutic, safest patient care possible
- Pass PMHNP Boards as soon as graduated
- Enter PhD (nursing education) program in order to gain necessary
education to help bring future PMHNPs into practice.
