A Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) is an advanced practice nurse with specialized training and experience in mental health care. They are equipped to conduct comprehensive psychological and physical assessments, make accurate diagnoses, provide therapy, for individuals dealing with psychiatric disorders.

Unlike psychiatrists, who are medical doctors with a focus on psychiatry, PMHNPs are registered nurses with advanced degrees in psychiatric mental health nursing. If a situation arises where a psychiatrist’s expertise is needed, I will provide you with a referral and support throughout the referral process.

I do not accept insurance directly, but I work with reimbursement partners to help make care more affordable. Through these partnerships, you may only need to pay a reduced upfront cost—sometimes just a copay—rather than the full session fee.

If you have out-of-network benefits, you may be eligible for partial reimbursement for services. I have partnered with reimbursement networks to simplify this process, handling claims automatically so you don’t have to. If you'd like to check your benefits, click here!
