Hello! I'm Zekarias Abessa, a passionate Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a Master of Nursing degree. For over twenty years, I've been dedicated to providing compassionate and comprehensive mental health care. My journey in nursing has been a blend of academic excellence, with an impressive GPA of 3.92 from Walden University, and practical hands-on experience.

I believe in delivering care with respect, dignity, and fairness to all. My experience ranges from managing patient cases efficiently to implementing effective treatment plans. I also have a strong commitment to continuous learning and advancing my skills in mental health care.

Outside of my work, I stay engaged with healthcare communities to ensure I'm always bringing the best to my patients. I’m here to listen, support, and guide you through your mental health journey with empathy and understanding. Feel free to reach out to me—I’m always ready to help.
