Hello! I'm Giovanni, but most call me Gio, I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.

I have been a registered nurse for over ten years and have worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings. With the last four years at the University of Michigan on the inpatient adult and adolescent units. I received my Bachelor of Nursing from Colorado Mesa University and my Master of Nursing from Wayne State University.

I am board certified through the American Nurses American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner PMHNP - BC I have a strong desire to help people navigate through their mental health challenges. My intent is to establish a good rapport, develop trust, and prove an emotionally safe environment.

I know how hard it is to sit and talk about struggles you might be facing. I too navigate through my own mental health journey, and I know how important being comfortable is when seeking help. My biggest priority is making you feel as comfortable as possible and to help you through your struggles.

In my free time, I love to be outdoors as much as possible. This helps me with my own mental health. I strongly believe if we connect with the earth and take a moment to see things around us it will help us navigate through our struggles. I have a wife (Kelly) and an eight-year-old son (Vinny). We also have two dogs, Sammy who is a 15-year-old mini pincher mix, and Pluto who is a corgi and still a pup.
