I am Shannon Pereira, a highly skilled Nurse Practitioner with over 12 years of diverse healthcare experience. I hold advanced credentials including Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP), Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN), Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), and Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP). I am board certified in my specialty areas, highlighting my dedication to patient care excellence. My specialties include family medicine, psychiatric mental health, and addiction treatment, where I employ a holistic approach to treat the whole person rather than just symptoms, fostering meaningful relationships and enhancing patient quality of life.
I am passionate and compassionate about addiction medicine and all aspects of mental health, understanding their interconnectedness. My approach involves treating clients safely with medication and motivation. My practice offers mental health treatment, GLP1 and Peptide therapy along with HRT for both men and women.
