Dr. Evelyn Dennis, DNP, APRN, PMHNP-BC, specializes in treating teen and adult mental health issues such as anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and depression. I received my master's degree and DNP from one of the country's most respected university programs. A board-certified advanced psychiatrist Nurse practitioner with experience in inpatient, outpatient, and community settings, as well as a strong track record of building solid relationships with clients, their families, and colleagues, with high expertise in assessment, evaluation, diagnosis, medication management, and treatment in a variety of mental health conditions and across the lifespan. As a Certified psychiatrist and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I've worked with many people through difficult times. We'll keep identifying and achieving healthy living patterns and looking at difficult areas of your life. Our primary goal is to figure out how to overcome obstacles so that we can work together to help you become the person you want to be. I have over 8 years of experience assisting people from various backgrounds and concerns. My approach is client-centered, with treatment goals based on a highly classified, supportive, and respectful relationship.
During our initial session, we will commence with succinct introductions, followed by an exploration of the particular difficulties you are encountering. This will assist me in formulating a customized plan for our subsequent sessions.
One of my strengths, I believe, is my ability to demonstrate empathy. Many people's most significant worry when walking into an office to discuss a problem is that the other person won't care and would only look at it from their own perspective rather than actively trying to connect with the person. I want to provide a safe environment for my patients to learn the importance of advocating for their mental health, educate them about the psyche-body connection, and de-stigmatize mental health therapy.
I love working with young professionals who are in the first few years of their careers. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about their careers.

I have experience providing comprehensive psychiatric care that integrates thorough diagnostic evaluation with evidence-based medication management. My approach begins with a detailed assessment of psychiatric symptoms, medical history, psychosocial factors, and prior treatment response to ensure accurate diagnosis and individualized treatment planning. I utilize a patient-centered, collaborative approach when initiating or adjusting medications, carefully discussing risks, benefits, alternatives, and expected outcomes. Medications are selected based on current clinical guidelines, symptom profile, and comorbid conditions. Ongoing monitoring focuses on therapeutic response, side effects, adherence, and safety. In addition to pharmacologic treatment, I emphasize psychoeducation to help patients understand their diagnoses and actively participate in their care. I incorporate supportive therapeutic techniques during medication visits and coordinate care with therapists, primary care providers, and other specialists to promote continuity and comprehensive treatment. My overall goal is to stabilize symptoms, improve functioning, and support long-term recovery while maintaining the highest standards of safety, clinical judgment, and ethical practice.
