Jacqueline Finley
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who provides compassionate, practical mental health care for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, mood changes, and difficulty managing everyday life. I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management while taking the time to listen, understand what’s going on, and create a treatment plan that fits your individual needs. Convenient evening and Friday telehealth appointments available for busy adults and healthcare professionals.
I tailor my approach to each client, using evidence-based therapies to address anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and personal growth.
First session
During your first visit, we'll discuss your current symptoms, medical and psychiatric history, medications, previous treatments, and what you hope to improve. I'll complete a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and discuss my clinical impressions and treatment options with you. If medication is appropriate, we'll review the potential benefits, risks, side effects, and next steps together.
Strengths
My greatest strength is helping patients feel comfortable, heard, and involved in their care. I take time to understand your symptoms, life circumstances, and treatment goals rather than focusing only on a diagnosis. When medication is appropriate, I explain the options clearly and work collaboratively with you to find an effective treatment plan while monitoring progress and making adjustments along the way.
Ideal clients
My ideal client is an adult seeking support for ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, or mood-related concerns. You may feel overwhelmed, have difficulty focusing, struggle with motivation, or feel that your current treatment is no longer working. I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management in a supportive, collaborative environment where we can understand your symptoms and develop a treatment plan that fits your needs and goals.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use CBT strategies to help you identify unhelpful thought patterns, understand how thoughts influence emotions and behaviors, and develop practical coping skills. We’ll focus on strategies you can use between visits to manage anxiety, depression, stress, and everyday challenges.
