Kendall Haydel
As a board-certified psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner with over 13 years of mental health experience, I employ a tailored approach to treating ADD/ADHD, anxiety, depression, and eating disorders, with a particular emphasis on serving the LGBTQIA+ community. While medication is often a central component of treatment, I also incorporate evidence-based lifestyle and behavioral strategies to enhance long-term stability and functioning.
I utilize a holistic approach specializing in treating ADD/ADHD, anxiety, depression, and eating disorders, with a focus on serving the LGBTQIA+ community.
My approach is structured and results-oriented. I prioritize: Accurate diagnosis (not guesswork) Thoughtful medication selection and dosing Ongoing adjustments based on real outcomes
First session
In our sessions, clients can expect a safe and confidential space where they can explore and discuss their thoughts, feelings, and concerns. First Visit: Comprehensive psychiatric evaluation Clear diagnosis (when appropriate) Initial medication strategy with rationale Follow-Ups: Precise medication adjustments Side effect optimization Ongoing treatment refinement based on response
Strengths
The biggest strengths I bring into our sessions are clinical precision, efficiency, and a strong focus on results. I work to quickly identify what’s not working, provide a clear diagnosis when appropriate, and implement targeted treatment strategies so you can start seeing measurable improvement as soon as possible.
Ideal clients
My ideal clients are adults seeking clarity, structure, and effective treatment for symptoms related to ADHD, anxiety, depression, or mood disorders. Many come to me feeling stuck after trying medications that haven’t worked well, experiencing side effects, or not receiving a clear diagnosis or treatment plan. I work best with individuals who are motivated to feel better and are open to a collaborative, goal-oriented approach. They want more than just a prescription, they’re looking for a provider who takes a systematic approach to diagnosis, closely monitors progress, and makes thoughtful, evidence-based medication adjustments to achieve real, measurable improvement.
Treatment methods
Eclectic
As a psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner, my primary focus is on accurate diagnosis and effective medication management. I combine this with targeted therapeutic interventions that align with each client’s symptoms, goals, and preferences. This allows me to address both the biological and behavioral aspects of conditions such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. I tailor treatment based on what is working, monitor progress closely, and make data-driven adjustments to optimize outcomes. I work collaboratively with clients to ensure they feel supported, informed, and actively involved in their care, with the goal of achieving meaningful and measurable improvement.
