**** ***** ***** **.

Arlington, TX 76002

Dear Sir/Madam,

I wish to apply for the Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner position at this professional institution.

I am a graduate from the Walden University with a Master of Science Degree in Nursing with a specialization in Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, Board Certified (PMHNP-BC). Currently pursuing Doctor of Nursing Practice program at University of Alabama Huntsville (UAH).

Walden University, strives to adequately prepare its Nurse Practitioner graduates for the clinic with a strong didactic curriculum as well as an intensive and extensive hands-on clinical practicum. As detailed on my enclosed resume, I gained extensive experience (800 Clinical Practicum Hours) in the clinical setting as a Supervised Primary Care Mental Health Provider to a diverse Mental Health Patient Population.

I developed a passion in helping Mental Health patients when I began my nursing career as Associate Degree Nurse (ADN). This passion motivated me to further my education all the way up through RN-BSN and currently to MSN-PMHNP.

I strongly believe that I am well qualified to undertake the responsibilities of a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. This belief is affirmed by the passion I have cultivated and nurtured throughout my nursing career which has been mostly dedicated to Mental Health. I believe also that your department would provide an excellent environment for my intellectual and professional growth.

Please find enclosed my resume.

Thank you for your attention and consideration and I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Enoch Adomako
