PMHNP
Female
Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Shela A. West, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) deeply dedicated to improving the mental well-being of my clients. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of serving individuals across diverse healthcare settings, including behavioral health emergency departments, inpatient and outpatient care, women's health, and case management. My practice revolves around the concept of "Illusions Dissolved." Through medication management, I not only provide education on each medication, including benefits and side effects, but also aim to dissolve any misconceptions or illusions surrounding mental health treatment. I encourage patients to actively participate in their healthcare journey, empowering them with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to advocate for themselves in our stigmatized society.
