Stacey LaRoche
Hello, I'm Stacey LaRoche, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 29 years of experience in the nursing field. I earned my degrees from the University of Central Florida and Herzing University, where I developed a strong foundation in medical, education, and mental health care.
My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, empowered, and equipped for lasting healing.
I believe in treating the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—and partner with each client to create individualized treatment plans that align with their goals and values.
First session
In our first session, we will complete an initial psychiatric evaluation. We will discuss, to your comfort level, the items that were completed on the intake forms. I will provide education/information on treatment options. With your goals and priorities in mind, we will work together to formulate the best plan to move forward!
Strengths
My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, empowered, and equipped for lasting healing. Whether you're new to mental health care or seeking a fresh perspective, I’m here to work with you on your journey to wellness. My practice, Inner Balance Psychiatry, combines evidence-based psychiatry with holistic approaches to mental wellness, tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. I show kindness and compassion, but will also be the firm motivator/accountability partner when needed!
Ideal clients
My "ideal client" is looking for a partner or team-member in their care. Someone who is looking for evidence-based treatment options and isn't afraid to jump in and do the work it takes to get through whatever struggles they face--with someone to walk alongside them during their journey! Through building a safe space and professional rapport, they will feel inspired to ask questions and share their progress!
Origin story
I have always been drawn to mental health/community health. Through all my years in nursing--in various roles and specialties--my passion has always brought me back to mental health and overall well-being (and how we must look at "the big picture" to be "well"). I had a major turning point in my life/career (starting right after the COVID lockdown) when I decided that I was FINALLY going to do what REALLY brings me joy. And here I am! Loving being able to help others through what is sometimes the toughest time of their lives!
Treatment methods
Motivational Interviewing
Every client responds differently, so your treatment plan will be individualized based on your needs and learning styles. Through the use of brief supportive psychotherapy and motivational interviewing, we will work together toward reaching your goals.
