**All Potential New Clients Must Have a Telephone Consultation Before Scheduling** Hello, my name is Regina Speights and I am a dual board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner. If you are tired of making poor decisions or are ready for growth and want to know if medication will help, contact me. I utilize motivational interviewing with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you know and understand if you're ready to make changes. I specialize in Addiction, Anxiety, Depression, Medical Weight Loss, and Grief. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and multiple screening evidence-based screening tools to diagnose. It will take 2-3 visits for a diagnosis because many factors must be explored. I do not diagnose on one visit. I realized medical and mental health should be treated simultaneously, so I pursued and completed a Doctor of Nursing Practice – Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner where my research focused on motivational interviewing, PTSD, and drug use in homeless women. My training and experience span metropolitan areas in various states. My passion leads me to serve persons with chronic addiction, veterans, and persons experiencing homelessness. In my free time, I garden, bake, and continue to serve persons with chronic homelessness. My favorite quote is “Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fall” – Ralph Waldo Emerson

I received a Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University, a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from San Diego State University, and an Associate Degree in Nursing from San Diego City College. I am board-certified as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) from the ANCC. While completing clinical rotations, I was immediately drawn to the field of psychiatry. I saw how compassion and empathy – skills I’d developed over a 19-year career in veterinary medicine – were extremely valuable and immediately transferable to patients experiencing mental health issues. Since then, I’ve worked in an acute care inpatient psychiatry unit and on a consult team treating patients with substance use disorders. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I am committed to helping patients achieve their mental health goals. Growing up in New Mexico, I was surrounded by vibrant Southwestern culture, delicious food, and otherworldly landscapes. Throughout high school and college, I immersed myself in the music and theater scenes and became active in the queer community after coming out at age 16. Living as a young queer kid in a relatively conservative town presented many challenges, but those experiences made me understand and appreciate the importance of visibility, inclusion, trust, and mutual respect. As a person and a practitioner, I embrace everyone I meet with curiosity and an open mind. I believe that this creates a judgment-free, welcoming environment that can nurture and grow relational trust. With clients, my priority is to help them feel seen, heard, and valued. I believe that fostering a rich personal life is what allows me to show up for my clients and provide the best care possible. When not working, I can be found attending/traveling to see live shows, or listening/dancing to one of my favorite records at home (current rotation: Metronomy, Little Dragon, Stromae, and Charlotte Adigéry). I share my home with my husband and our two spunky senior pups who frequently demand our undivided attention. I also love traveling, hiking, cycling, and pretending to be good at roller skating.
