I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP). While I’m proud of my education and experience, titles aren’t what’s important to me. What matters is helping you feel better, helping you move forward, and supporting you in becoming the best version of yourself. I also have an extensive military background and served in the U.S. Army as both a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter pilot and a fixed-wing RC-12 pilot. My military experience taught me the importance of preparation, communication, teamwork, and staying calm when things get complicated. My style is informal, relaxed, and judgment-free. You don’t need to have everything figured out or know exactly what to say when we meet. Just show up as you are. I’ll meet you where you are mentally, and we’ll work together from there.
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.

Before obtaining my doctorate, I was a board-certified psychiatric registered nurse, gaining extensive experience across various clinical settings, including inpatient psychiatry, psychiatric emergency services, community behavioral health, and forensic psychiatry (jail-based care).
I am experienced, confident in treating a wide range of mental health conditions, including:
- Schizophrenia & Schizoaffective Disorder
- Eating Disorders
- Psychosis
- Major Depressive Disorder
- Personality Disorders
- ADHD
- Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
- PTSD
- Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)

Frequently asked questions


Find the right psychiatrist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Bowling Green
Finding psychiatrists in Bowling Green starts with understanding what kind of care you need. Psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, medical doctors, and doctors of osteopathic medicine can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work with a prescriber when medication support is part of care. If you are looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, look for a prescriber whose listed specialties and experience match your needs.
In a smaller city like Bowling Green, local psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger Kentucky markets. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while keeping care connected to your schedule. Psychiatry visits for medication management are usually shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people meet with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare options, review availability, appointment format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Provider bios can help you understand communication style, specialties, and what to expect in a first visit.
Psychiatric care in Bowling Green can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket estimate before you book. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists and other prescribers who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and take your plan. You can compare profiles, check estimated costs, and book directly when you are 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.
