Getting to know Jalia Kizito

Hello, I am Jalia. I am a doctoral-prepared (DNP) Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and Family Nurse Practitioner, board-certified in both specialties. I hold dual master’s degrees in nursing and social work. I completed my Doctor of Nursing Practice at Samuel Merritt University and earned additional education at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). With a holistic approach, I assess, diagnose, and treat Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia, Depression, Anxiety, Substance Use Disorders, and Trauma/PTSD. My experience includes working with Transitional Age Youths (TAYs) ages 16 to 28, adults under 65, as well as parents and caregivers of clients with psychiatric disorders. My research interests focus on Adverse Childhood Events (ACEs) and psychiatric disorders, chronic medical conditions and substance use disorders; Maternal Substance Use and genetic psychiatric illnesses; Restorative Justice in mental health; Herbal Medicine in psychiatry; and Relapse Prevention in people with chronic mental illness.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Using bio-psycho-social assessments and individualized treatment plans, I offer medication management, psychotherapy, psychoeducation, and alternative treatments using evidence-based practices.
