About me
Hello and welcome! I'm Afi Kpakossou, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a passion for helping people manage their mental health. With nine years of nursing experience under my belt, I've gained extensive experience in evaluating patients, managing medications, and treating both adults and children dealing with behavioral health disorders.
Currently, I am part of the dedicated team at Pinnacle Behavioral Health and Wellness., where I focus on initial patient evaluations, medication management, and coordinating care to ensure comprehensive treatment for my patients.
My treatment philosophy centers on compassion, understanding, and patient empowerment. I believe that every individual deserves personalized care tailored to their unique needs. With years of experience in psychiatric nursing, I focus on holistic evaluations and effective medication management. I engage closely with my patients, fostering open communication to build trust and ensure they feel heard. My approach combines evidence-based practices with a warm, supportive environment, helping patients navigate their mental health challenges. Together, we create a collaborative care plan that promotes healing and growth, ensuring that each patient’s voice remains central to their treatment journey.
