Valerie Baldwin-Thomas, MSN
Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
As a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health NP and a board certification as an Adult Health NP, I focus on providing compassionate care to clients with all mental health disorders and a sub-specialization in addiction medicine. Leveraging dual board certifications, I am able to deliver experienced and up to date medical care for clients with acute and chronic health problems, while employing solution-focused and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques to support mental health treatment.
Approach
My approach integrates the bio-psychosocial model to address client histories and ensure holistic care. By collaborating with multidisciplinary teams and offering accessible in-person and online services, I aim to empower clients to achieve their healthcare goals in a dignified and inclusive manner.
