Hi, my name is Simone Lawrence. My background as a nurse and Director of Nursing in residential settings for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities showed me just how viatl accessible mental health care truly is. That experience drove my decision to return to Pace University to pursue my degree as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I know firsthand that life isn’t linear and that everyone encounters bumps along the way; the mental health journey is no different. As your practitioner, Im dedicated to partnering with you collaboratively and compassionately, focusing on you as a whole person rather than just your symptoms. In my free time, I love unwinding with my family and friends. I look forward to supporting you on your journey.
