Hello! I specialize in women’s mental health, focusing on hormone-related concerns such as PMDD, infertility, loss, pregnancy, postpartum, and perimenopause. Combining my background as a Certified Nurse-Midwife (CNM) and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), I offer a compassionate, holistic approach tailored to each woman's unique experience. I am dedicated to helping women navigate these significant life transitions and hormonal challenges with understanding, support, and effective strategies. If you're seeking expert guidance and empathetic care, I’m here to support you on your journey to wellness.
My name is Holly Bowling and I am a Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I started my nursing career in 2012 after graduating from Ball State University. I have had the opportunity to work in many disciplines where I was able to utilize my knowledge and skills required to provide for those with mental health issues, specifically, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and ADHD, allowing me the opportunity to continue pursuing my career, in mental health.
My name is Doug L. Watson, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC, RN, and I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with three years of experience treating clients across the lifespan. While I’m trained to work with individuals of all ages, about 85% of my practice has been focused on pediatrics and adolescents—a population I’m truly passionate about serving. I see children as young as five years old through Telehealth up to ages 75 or higher if needed. I earned both my BSN and MSN from Indiana Wesleyan University, completing my graduate degree in October 2022.
I genuinely love what I do and have always felt called to the field of psychiatry. Becoming a Psych/Mental Health Nurse Practitioner has been one of the most fulfilling decisions of my life. I’m excited to be on my own, building a lasting career. I’m committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care and making a positive difference in the lives of my clients and their families.
I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner with a focus on practical, relationship-based mental health care. I specialize in medication management for conditions like depression, anxiety, ADHD, and stress-related challenges, especially for working professionals and first responders. My approach is straightforward and collaborative. I take time to understand what’s actually going on and build a plan that fits your life. With an integrative mindset. I see medication and talk therapy as tools in a tool chest of mental wellness.
I’m Dr. Michelle S. McBride, DNP, PMHNP-BC, MBA, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate and comprehensive mental health care.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Indiana
Finding the right psychiatrist in Indiana starts with knowing what kind of care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work with you on skills, patterns, and support. If you’re looking for care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach to see whether their background matches your needs.
Psychiatric care can look different across Indiana, from Indianapolis and Fort Wayne to Evansville and more rural areas. Virtual appointments may give you more options if nearby offices have limited availability or your schedule fits better with care from home. Medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare options, look at appointment times, whether a free phone consultation is offered, and how each bio describes communication style and care structure.
Psychiatric care in Indiana can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before booking. Headway helps you find psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients and match your insurance details. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and you can check your specific coverage, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
