She believes that every patient should feel safe and be heard without bias or judgment and be encouraged to collaboratively participate in their treatment. Her treatment model focuses on providing care that is compassionate, comprehensive, and patient-focused utilizing a holistic approach treating the whole person, not just the symptoms of their mental illness. Holistic care consists of utilizing the whole-body approach focusing on the patient\u2019s mind, body, and soul when diagnosing and treating their mental illness. Medications are merely a part of the treatment, and not the entire plan. It\u2019s vital to consider the patient\u2019s overall well- being and discuss factors concerning their lifestyle, diet, exercise, sleep habits, stress level, physical and social health needs while working with the patient to collaboratively develop their individualize plan of care.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c00473b elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c00473b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Brenda received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Thomas Jefferson University and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner from Drexel University.
