Am Annastecia, from Houston Texas. I started my career as RN and worked my way up. I received my master's from Walden University, with honors. I love my career as a PMHNP, with the duty to assess, diagnose and treat mentally challenged patients, with depression, mood disorders, psychosis and borderline personality. Am very successful with a holistic approach to active listening, motivating and educating my patient before resorting to medication management. Due to my empathetic nature, and love for mental health, I remain steadfast and compassionate in my ability to embrace change and continue research to impact new knowledge. My patients are grantees to go home with the message of hope and see the mental health issues in a new dimension that promotes healing.
