Hi there, I’m Jovita!
A Doctorate-Prepared and Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner based in Los Angeles, California
I specialize in working with professionals and adults who are poised for personal growth but may require support in reaching their next level of well-being.
Schedule a ConsultationMy journey in healthcare began three decades ago in Los Angeles. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree from Walden University.
I completed a post-graduate degree in Nurse Practitioner at CSULB and a Master’s in Nursing Education from CSUDH. My undergraduate nursing degree was from LSU, New Orleans. Through my graduate and doctorate degrees, I have gained the privilege of prescribing medication in conjunction with integrated therapy, often working collaboratively with psychiatrists.
Schedule a ConsultationBeyond my role as a nurse practitioner,
I've also dedicated myself to educating the next generation of nursing professionals. I've served as a program director, course lead, and adjunct professor in both undergraduate and graduate nursing programs. Your ideas have a purpose, so choose words that accurately express them. Ensure your grammar is flawless, as it impacts your credibility. Use the active voice whenever possible, making any narrative easier to read.
My commitment to the nursing profession extends beyond my clinical practice. I'm an active member of esteemed organizations, including the National Association of Nigerian Nurse Practitioners SoCal chapter, where I currently hold the position of Vice President.
I bring a wealth of knowledge, experience, and evidence-based practices to my private practice. My goal is to create a warm and welcoming environment where clients feel comfortable and understood.
