Hi, I’m Tina Chen, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping clients feel their best.

With advanced training from California Baptist University and National University, I focus on creating a supportive, collaborative space where you can build confidence, resilience, and balance in your everyday life.
I have 20 years of experience in healthcare and firmly believe that mental health is essential to overall health. I am excited about the changes in our culture that have shined a spotlight on mental health. I believe it is time to fight stigmas and continue to promote emotional well-being. I'm a board-certified Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and specialize in managing mood disorders, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and bipolar disorders, with approaches tailored to each client’s needs.
I’m a board‐certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 12 years of experience in healthcare, providing thoughtful, evidence‐based psychiatric care to adolescents and adults across North Carolina via telehealth.
I focus on thoughtful, individualized medication management with supportive psychotherapy when appropriate while also considering the whole person—your experiences, lifestyle, stressors, and goals.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 11 years of healthcare experience. Before specializing in psychiatry, I worked in the Burn ICU and outpatient procedural settings, where I learned the importance of caring for the whole person during some of life’s most difficult moments. I earned my nursing degree from UNC Chapel Hill and my Master of Science in Nursing from Frontier Nursing University. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, and especially enjoy helping people navigate ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life changes—like school, relationships, career stress, or grief—that can leave us feeling overwhelmed or stuck.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who works with children, adolescents, and adults. I understand that reaching out for psychiatric care can feel overwhelming—especially when you’ve been struggling for a while, have tried treatments that haven’t worked, or are trying to find the right help for your child.
I work with individuals experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, mood disorders, trauma-related symptoms, autism/neurodivergence, sleep difficulties, and emotional or behavioral dysregulation. My goal is to provide a space where you feel heard, understood, and comfortable being honest about what is and isn’t working.
While I work with all ages across the lifespan, I especially enjoy working with children and adolescents and patterning with parents who are trying to understand complex behavioral, emotional, or attention concerns.
I am a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP), which allows me to care for both mental and physical health in a more integrated way. I work with individuals across the lifespan and support a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, psychotic symptoms, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, and stress-related challenges.
My background in both psychiatry and primary care helps me understand how closely mental health is connected to physical health, lifestyle, and overall well-being. I strive to provide care that is thoughtful, personalized, and rooted in evidence-based practice.

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 Asheville
Finding psychiatrists in Asheville starts with knowing what kind of mental health care you want to access. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners may also provide diagnosis and medication management. Therapists in Asheville, NC focus on talk therapy, while some prescribers may also offer therapy. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and care approach before you book.
Asheville is a smaller city, so nearby in-person psychiatric appointments may have more limited availability. Virtual psychiatry can expand your options across North Carolina while still giving you access to care that fits your schedule. Psychiatric medication management appointments are usually shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare Asheville psychiatrists, look at appointment times, whether they offer virtual or in-person visits, and what their bio says about communication style, medication management, and conditions they commonly support.
Psychiatric care in Asheville 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 begins. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who accept your insurance, are accepting new patients, and match your preferences for specialty, format, and availability. You can review profiles, see estimated out-of-pocket costs after adding your insurance, 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.
