With more than 25 years of experience in the medical field, including 13 years as an Advanced Practice Nurse holding dual certifications as a PMHNP and FNP, I am a seasoned professional dedicated to delivering comprehensive psychiatric care. Proficient in diagnostic processes utilizing the DSM-5, the latest diagnostic tool, and well-versed in pharmacotherapy, I bring a depth of expertise to my practice. Emphasizing the interconnected nature of the body and mind, I approach patient care holistically. Over the past decade, my proficiency in Telehealth has allowed me to provide remote care effectively. I excel in leveraging technology to improve patient outcomes and enhance access to care, recognizing its significance in today's dynamic healthcare landscape. New: Controlled medications: Per DEA (Ryan Haight Act) requirements, prescribing controlled medications requires at least one in-person evaluation and appropriate diagnostic documentation. Additional requirements may include EKG, labs, formal psychological or neuropsychological assessment, and school records showing inattentive symptoms before age 11, as clinically indicated.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During our initial session, our primary emphasis will be on delving into your medical history, current health status, and any existing mental health needs you may have. I will inquire about your past treatments, seeking insights into what has or hasn't been effective for you. This session serves as a valuable opportunity for us to establish a connection, fostering a deeper understanding of your individual needs. It marks the commencement of a collaborative process where we work together to formulate a personalized plan tailored to address your unique circumstances. My goal is to create an environment where you feel comfortable and supported, laying the foundation for a therapeutic journey that prioritizes your well-being.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My expertise as a psychiatrist lies in pharmacotherapy, where I specialize in balancing or reducing neurotransmitters that may contribute to mental illness. This strength, coupled with the solution-focused brief therapy approach, forms a comprehensive strategy to guide and support my clients on their path to mental well-being. This integrated approach ensures a holistic and personalized method, addressing both medical and mental health components. The result is a more effective and tailored treatment plan for each individual client

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I firmly believe in the holistic approach to healthcare, recognizing the vital role of both pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy in comprehensive treatment. With a specialization in assisting adults aged 18 and above, my extensive experience is dedicated to supporting individuals in navigating the challenges of today's stressful world. While I have previous experience working with children, my expertise lies in helping grown-ups. I strongly advocate for addressing both medical and mental health issues simultaneously, understanding the intrinsic connection between physical and mental well-being. By addressing these aspects together, we can collaboratively work towards improving your overall well-being and helping you feel better holistically.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

Hi everyone, my name is Messeret Tewolde, but I go by Macy. I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner. I have been practicing since 2012 and have been a nurse since 1997. I am currently accepting new clients for medication management. Due to recent regulations, I am not prescribing controlled substances at this time. However, I continue to treat conditions such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, psychosis, and other mental health concerns using FDA-approved treatment plans based on CDC and American Psychiatric Association guidelines. I also treat ADHD with non-stimulant options such as Wellbutrin SR and Strattera. I am partnered with a licensed counselor for psychotherapy services and can also refer you to a psychologist or therapist based on your insurance preference.

Dr. Tewolde was so informative, kind, absolutely amazing. I can't express how much I appreciated the information she gave to me. She helped me learn that I can actually find treatment close to home as well as letting me know I am not crazy for thinking I have issues. After having a horrible experience with another doctor from grow therapy, Dr. Tewolde was a refreshing appointment restoring my faith in humanity and medicine. Thank you so much!!
