Symlink Error When Downloaded NPM packages Globally

Question

I am trying to download an npm package globally, but met with this error. I'm aware that the path where the package is downloaded should be /usr/local/lib/node_modules, but in the error, it seems the path is ../lib/node_modules/nodemon/bin/nodemon.js. I previously downloaded npm/node with Homebrew, but uninstalled it and re-downloaded node through its website.

Node v16.15.0

NPM 8.5.5

MacOS 12.2.1

How can I re-arrange these files so that global packages can be downloaded without this symlink error?
