My name is Edyn McKinnon. I received my Associate of Science Degree from South Georgia College in 2009. I then went to Georgia Southern University, where I received my Bachelor of Science in Nursing in 2011. I earned my Family Nurse Practitioner degree and started working in psychiatry. I worked in psychiatry for the past 10 years. In July 2021, I earned a Post Masters Certificate for Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner from Valdosta State University. I most recently earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice Degree (DNP) in May of 2024 from Valdosta State University. When I started working in psychiatry, it became my passion. I work with individuals from the age of 6 to geriatrics. I have had the pleasure to work on several inpatient crisis stability units for adult age patients, 18-55 years old, as well as geriatric units for patients aged 55 years and older. I have been working in the private practice setting for the past 6 years. I have come to realize that when you love what you do, it is no longer truly work. I would love to work with you, formulate a treatment plan that is appropriate for you. I believe that it is important for me as a provider to involve patients in this process, this will provide the best patient outcome. I don't want to be the provider that just prescribes pills. I want to be the provider that actively listens and with your help makes the right treatment plan together. My favorite compliments from patients are that as a provider I actively listen and make them feel human, as others in the past had not. I am here for you. Let's do this.
The first session will be around 1 hour in length, and we will discuss issues at hand as well as past history and treatment.

I’ve been seeing Edyn for years now. By far my favorite practitioner! She always listens to me and I never feel judged. 10/10

Even at 7am in the morning Mrs. Edyn had energy, made me laugh and made me feel comfortable in the first minute.
