Getting to know Collins Lyamah
My name is Collins Iyamah, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BOARD CERTIFIED, I am currently licensed in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, New York and Washington State. We want our clients to understand that they are not alone regardless of what their condition may sound or look like rather be rest assured that Compassion Behavioral Health will provide interventions to restore hopes.
My approach
Mental health care cover various perspectives, including spiritual, moral character, statistical, disease/biological, psychological (psychodynamic, behavioral, cognitive-behavioral), social, and psychosocial models2. These diverse approaches allow me to tailor treatment to individual needs
My focus
In mental health, I typically work with a diverse range of patients. Some common conditions I’m comfortable treating include anxiety disorders (such as generalized anxiety, social anxiety, and panic disorder), depression, adjustment disorders, and stress-related issues, schizophrenia, Bipolar 1 and 2, OCD. Additionally, I assist individuals dealing with grief, trauma, and relationship challenges.
My communication style
In my sessions, I strive to create a warm, empathetic, and nonjudgmental environment. I listen actively, validate feelings, and encourage open dialogue. Working with me feels collaborative, supportive, and focused on growth
My journey to mental healthcare
Certainly! My journey to becoming a mental healthcare provider involved several steps: 1. Education: I completed a bachelor’s degree in nursing from the University Texas. This provided foundational knowledge about human health, human behavior, cognition, and mental health. 2. Graduate Studies: I pursued a master’s degree in psychiatric mental health discipline. During this time, I gained specialized training in assessment, therapy techniques, and research. 3. Clinical Training: I participated in supervised clinical internships or practicums. These hands-on experiences allowed me to work directly with the clients.
