Meet Gifty
Gifty Aba Yankson, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC
“A journey across three continents, grounded in one belief: people deserve to be heard.”
My journey in healthcare has taken me across Africa, Europe, and North America—through different healthcare systems, cultures, and perspectives on health and mental wellness. Those experiences have shaped not only how I understand healthcare, but how I believe people should experience it.
My nursing journey later took me into travel nursing, where I spent approximately two and a half years as a travel mental health nurse. Working in different settings and with different communities broadened my clinical perspective and reinforced something I had learned throughout my career:
Today, I continue to work in high-risk perinatal nursing while beginning the next chapter of my career as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.
My experience at the bedside, across mental-health settings, in high-risk perinatal care, and as a travel nurse has shaped the way I approach psychiatric care today. I believe mental-health care should be personal, collaborative, thoughtful, and grounded in the whole person—not simply a diagnosis. Your symptoms matter, but so do your experiences, your culture, your relationships, your responsibilities, your goals, and the life you are trying to build.
