I’m Victoria, I’m a mother, single-parent who has been through it all and am very relatable. I have been in the mental health field for 20 years and I am very passionate in making sure I meet all your needs. I treat a wide range of mental health conditions from ADHD to Schizophrenia and I am equipped with the expertise and experience to safely manage your needs.
I'm Anissa, a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner specializing in the evaluation and treatment of ADHD and other co-existing conditions.
When you work with me you get care that is calm, attentive, and centered on you.
Who I Work With:
I support individuals who are struggling with poor performance at work/school, anxious thoughts, panic attacks, depressed mood, occupational burnout, and other related conditions.
You're in the right place if:
✓ You're constantly overwhelmed or stressed about upcoming events or tasks needing to be completed
✓ You've been working harder to keep up but you feel like you're failing and burning out
✓ You suspect you have ADHD and need an evaluation, or you've been told you don't have ADHD and would like a second opinion
✓ You need help getting school or workplace accommodations or a leave of absence due to mental stress
✓ Past providers rushed you or didn't listen to your concerns
I've spent years meeting people where they are — literally going out into communities across Louisiana to provide psychiatric care. Now I'm channeling that same commitment into a private telehealth practice, where you can get the support you need from home. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, or PTSD, I offer a flexible, welcoming space for real, lasting progress. Evenings and weekends work for me — I built my schedule around people who can't step away from their day to get the help they deserve.
Hi there, I am Shannon Robertson, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and the founder of Mosaic Minds Wellness & Consulting. I believe mental health care should feel human, not rushed or impersonal. I strive to create a judgment-free space where you feel safe, respected, and truly heard. I take time to understand your story, not just your symptoms, and I approach care with compassion, curiosity, and empathy. My goal is for you to feel supported, empowered, and never alone in your healing journey.
My path to psychiatric care is a little different from most. I spent over a decade as an Obstetrics Nurse before transitioning into psychiatric mental health — and that background deeply shapes how I show up for my clients. I understand the weight of life transitions, the complexity of the mind-body connection, and the importance of feeling truly supported. Now, as a PMHNP, I bring that same compassionate, whole-person perspective to mental health care.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Metairie, LA
Finding psychiatrists in Metairie starts with understanding what psychiatric care includes. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication as part of care. Therapists focus on talk therapy and use different approaches to support mental health. If you are looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD, either type of care may be a fit depending on what you need. Review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and bio to see whether their experience matches your goals.
Metairie is close to New Orleans, which can help broaden your options, but local psychiatric availability may still vary. Virtual appointments can expand your search beyond offices near home, work, or school while keeping care within Louisiana. Psychiatric appointments for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare Metairie psychiatrists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer free phone consultations, and what their profiles say about communication style and session structure.
Psychiatric care in Metairie can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care starts. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, take your plan, and offer clear cost estimates before you book. You can compare bios, choose between virtual and in-person options when available, 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.
