I am Pamela Talbot-Atkinson, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over two decades dedicated to caring for individuals and families. With five years of experience in the mental health field, particularly as a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, I have developed a compassionate, empathetic, and attentive approach to care. I find joy in getting to know the people I care for and helping them live their best life through evidence-based mental health care. I pursued a career as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner to combat the stigma surrounding mental health, to educate clients on the equal importance of mental and physical health, and to combat the lack of access to mental health care by offering collaborative telehealth services. I hold both a bachelor's and master's degree from Chamberlain University in Illinois.
