Bigy Thomas, MSN, PMHNP-BC
Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
You deserve a care plan that sees the whole person—not just a 15-minute prescription.
Taking the first step toward mental wellness can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to navigate it alone. I believe true healing happens in a trusted partnership. In our sessions, you will find a safe, non-judgmental space where your voice is heard, your story is respected, and your personal goals guide every decision we make together.
How We Will Work Together:
- Care Beyond Medication: While precision medication management can be an effective tool, it is only one part of healing. I actively integrate evidence-based therapy skills (including CBT and Motivational Interviewing) to help you build practical, lasting coping strategies.
- Mind-Body Connection: With more than 25 years of extensive clinical nursing experience, I look closely at how your physical health, sleep, stress, and lifestyle influence how you feel mentally and emotionally.
- Culturally Sensitive & Personalized: Your background, values, and lived experiences matter. We will tailor your care to fit who you are and what you care about most.
Whether you are coping with anxiety, depression, mood changes, or major life transitions, we will work together at your pace to help you regain balance and feel empowered in your daily life.
I believe that healing begins in a space where you feel safe, respected, and truly heard. My goal is to create a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where clients can openly share their experiences, goals, and challenges. I strive to meet clients where they are while helping them build insight, confidence, resilience, and lasting wellness.

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 Mount Holly
Finding psychiatrists in Mount Holly starts with knowing the kind of care you want to book. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can evaluate mental health concerns, diagnose conditions, and prescribe medication. Therapists focus on talk therapy and related support. If you are looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management in Mount Holly, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach before choosing a fit.
Mount Holly is a smaller market, so local appointment options may be more limited than in larger parts of New Jersey. Virtual psychiatry can expand your search while keeping care accessible from home, especially if you are also looking across Burlington County or nearby towns. Medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Many people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare profiles, look at appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist offers virtual or in-person visits, and what their bio says about communication style and session structure.
Psychiatric care in Mount Holly 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 expected payment before you book. Headway helps you find psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients with your plan, view estimated costs upfront, 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.
