After returning to the U.S., Sharese worked as a victim’s advocate in a domestic violence shelter while pursuing a nursing degree. She graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from William Jewell College in 2014 and has spent years providing care in community and mental health settings working with both adults and children. She graduated with her Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner degree from UMKC in 2024.
“I enjoy working with patients from all ages, walks of life, cultural and religious backgrounds,” Sharese said. “I view mental health treatment as a holistic discipline and believe that a person’s cultural background, family of origin, and general lifestyle have significant impact on their mental health. I specialize in culturally specific care and enjoy working with people from different backgrounds who wish to implement their lifestyle and cultural practices with their healthcare. “
