I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing mental health care with an approach that may feel a little different from the typical model.
One thing that’s really important to me is meeting people where they are — including people who are hesitant about psychiatric medication. I’m honest about when I think medication may be helpful, but I also understand that not everyone wants medication to be their first or only tool. My goal is to have an open conversation about options so we can make decisions together.
When appropriate, I also take a broader look at factors that can affect mental health. This may include reviewing or ordering labs to identify things like vitamin deficiencies or other health concerns, discussing evidence-informed supplementation, and talking about sleep, nutrition, movement, stress, habits, as well as other lifestyle factors. If I identify something that falls outside of my scope, I help connect patients with the appropriate provider. I have a strong network of amazing local providers that I refer to!
If you’ve been putting off seeing someone because you’re worried that you’ll automatically be pushed toward medication, know that psychiatric care doesn’t have to start that way. Sometimes the first step is simply sitting down, looking at the whole picture, and figuring out what makes sense for you.
