Are you seeking compassionate care combined with clinical expertise? My name is Teena and I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with 20+ years of experience in the healthcare industry. I have worked in a variety of clinical settings both as a Behavioral Health RN and as a Psychiatric NP, and I possess "real world" experience treating psychiatric patients across the lifespan. I love my job! As a PMHNP, my focus is medication management. I will work closely with you to find the best medication regimen for your mental health needs. We will also discuss other aspects of your health including sleep, diet, exercise, stress reduction techniques, and nutritional supplementation. GBH proudly offers Pure Encapsulations vitamins/supplements for your enhanced wellbeing. Although my focus is on medication management, I offer brief supportive therapy to empower you to take action to achieve your mental wellness goals. Clients who are actively engaged in their care achieve the best results. Frequent cancellations or "no-shows" negatively impact your progress, limit appointment availability to others, and challenge our practice operations. IF YOU SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT WITH US, PLEASE BE PREPARED TO ATTEND. Please carefully review our practice policies prior to your first appointment and ask any questions if needed. You can easily search Goochland Behavioral Health for more information.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. Healing takes place through safety and authentic connection, so we will work together to establish both in our time together. We will clarify psychiatric diagnoses to determine evidence-based treatment options, then I will assist you in choosing medications and/or therapeutic interventions to target your symptoms. Follow-up sessions include medication management and therapeutic support to empower you in your self-healing journey.
GBH prides itself on its high levels of clinical competence and customer service. Additionally, telehealth appointments offer a convenient way for you to meet with your provider (me). We will be offering limited in-person appointments in our new Manakin-Sabot location beginning in May. Please call for availability.
Adult clients seeking help for ADHD, depression, and anxiety are my primary focus (but I like teenagers, too)!
Medication may not be right for everyone, but if you've come this far in considering an appointment, you may be ready for real change. The right medication could be the key to making that change possible.
