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.

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 Somerset

Finding psychiatrists in Somerset starts with knowing whether you want psychiatric care, therapy, or both. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy. Medication management may be part of care for concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties, clinical background, and approach match what you want help with.

Somerset 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 still giving you access to care from home. 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. Review each psychiatrist’s bio before booking to understand their focus areas, appointment style, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Psychiatric care in Somerset can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you find psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who may match your preferences, with many providers accepting insurance and listed as accepting new patients, so you can review profiles 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.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
