I am Shawn Howard, and I am a ANCC-board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner. I have over 20 years of psychiatric experience, ranging from inpatient psychiatric care to outpatient psychiatric care. My specialties include depression, anxiety, panic, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, sleep, OCD, ADHD and more. My approach to providing care to my patients is to actively listen to the patient and help them with the best choices to improve their self well -being.
I provide a loving, comfortable, unrushed session with all my patient. In our first session, we will discuss your history , needs , diagnosis, medication options and side effects.
I feel my greatest strength as a provider is helping clients understand their treatment options and goals.
I love working with all ages that need help with their mental health and want to better their self well-being.

Shawn really listened to me and made me feel understood. She never once made me feel silly or dismissed. I appreciate her authenticity and humor. I was very nervous at first, but she quickly put me at ease.

Shawn is amazing. I've been with her for a couple years now and I wouldn't trust anyone else!
