I am a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) specializing in child, adolescent, and adult psychiatry.
My clinical background includes experience in adult psychiatry and pediatric mental health, working with children, teens, and young adults navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and school or social stressors. I use evidence-based medication management combined with psychoeducation, supportive guidance, and collaboration with therapists, schools, and families when helpful.
I’m drawn to this work because I genuinely enjoy connecting with young people and helping them grow into healthier, more confident versions of themselves.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing collaborative, patient-centered medication management for adults.

If you’re looking for compassionate, thorough, and personalized care, I’m here to help you take the next step in your mental health journey.
I am here to listen. We all face mental health challenges at some point in our lives, and sometimes we need help reaching the other side of them. My path to this work has been a long one: I served as a first responder for 10 years and then spent more than 25 years as an emergency room nurse, with the past decade focused specifically on psychiatry in the ER. In those settings, I met people during some of the hardest moments of their lives, and I learned how much of a difference it makes to feel truly heard. Now, as a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I bring that same steadiness and compassion to helping you achieve your goals. If you have found me, chances are you have already tried everything you know and nothing has worked yet. That takes courage, and it tells me you are exactly the kind of person I can help.
Hello, Im C.J. and I have over 25 years of psychiatric experience. I am well versed in various conditions such as depression, bipolar, anxiety, major loss, ADHD, PTSD, trans needs, and psychotic syndromes. I am also experienced in alternative treatments for whole health. I look forward to working with you.
*please note, for in person appts on Monday (inside Matterhorn Apothecary) , do not schedule before 10AM as my office is not available until after that time. Thanks.
I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over 20 years of experience in behavioral health, hospice, and primary care mental health integration. Skilled in psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, and intervention, I have worked with diverse populations including children, seniors, veterans, incarcerated individuals, and patients with severe mental illness. I excel at integrating the biopsychosocial model to deliver patient-centered outcomes and continuity of care.
My full name is Kathleen, but my friends, colleagues, and clients call me Kat. Prior to completing my Masters of Science in Nursing through Walden University and achieving my Board Certification as a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in 2021, I worked at the bedside for 20 years as a Registered Nurse in a variety of care settings that included long term care, home care, ambulatory inpatient care for medically supervised management of a variety of withdrawal syndromes related to substance use disorders, and most recently as a critical care nurse in a Medical Intensive Care Unit (MICU), both before and during the COVID pandemic. Throughout my bedside career, the inherent connection between mental and physical health has always been apparent to me, and working with people that struggle with substance use disorder helped me in making my decision to become a psychiatric specialized provider. I am passionate about psychiatry and assisting people in optimizing their mental health.
I am a board certified Family, Geriatric, and Psychiatric Mental Health nurse practitioner with additional certifications in Substance Use Disorders, Menopausal Hormone Therapy and Integrative Psychiatry. Currently, my practice is solely focused on Women's Issues.
Born and raised in a healthcare family, I grew up at the dinner table hearing about all things, medicine and healthcare. I went into the field on my own for the first time at 18 years old and have never left. My first degree is a Bachelor of Science In Applied Psychology. I then went and completed a Bachelor of Nursing followed by my Master’s in Nursing and my Post Masters Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health. I have extensive experience working with children and adolescence as well as adults. I am an engaged active listener, and I excel at making sure patients feel comfortable and heard.

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 Psychiatrist in Maine
Searching for psychiatrists in Maine starts with understanding what kind of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists provide talk therapy. Medication management often includes reviewing symptoms, discussing how care is going, and making a plan with your prescriber. People often look for psychiatric care for concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD. Across Maine, needs and available psychiatrists can vary between larger cities, coastal communities, and rural areas, so it helps to look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties match what you want support with.
Practical fit matters, too. If you are searching near Portland, Bangor, Augusta, or another part of Maine, consider whether in-person visits or virtual appointments work better for your schedule. Psychiatric appointments for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber, depending on what they are looking for. Before booking, read psychiatrist profiles for details on availability, areas of focus, appointment format, and communication style. A free phone consultation can also help you decide whether a psychiatrist is a strong match.
Psychiatric care in Maine 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 you book. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, add your insurance details, and see estimated costs upfront. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and your specific coverage can be checked as part of your search. From there, you can compare profiles, review appointment times, 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.
