Souls True Healing Psychiatry & Wellness LLC
PMHNP-BC Certified Nurse Practitioner - Self-employed
Jul 2023 - Present
As a survivor of multivariate Trauma, I am called to serve those suffering with Mental health and Trauma symptoms. Trauma shows up in varied ways-one of which is anxiety and panic, Intrusive and obsessive thoughts, depression, insomnia, people pleasing, lack of boundaries or always facing the need to say "yes" to prove value, worth through the constant activity, with an inability to just shut off on a day to day basis. As a full scope PMHNP- I actively listen to understand those symptoms that my patients are struggling with. I use a salutogenic framework-so I view the person in a Holistic way-focused not on treating disease- but on treating those symptoms that are causing distress and dis-ease within their life, which includes somatic movement, breath work, CBT, MI and other modalities incorporating psychotherapy and medication and herbal supplements to bring about a deeper healing that comes from regulating effectively and processing those emotions that lead to current symptoms.View all
