A peaceful place to be heard, understood, and restored. Rooted in wisdom. Guided by compassion.

I’m a double board-certified Nurse Practitioner providing thoughtful, evidence-based mental health care that integrates both medical and therapeutic approaches. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice from Temple University in 2019, with a focus in Adult-Gerontology Primary Care, and later completed a post-master’s certification in Family Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing in 2024.

My clinical background spans the full continuum of care across the lifespan. I have worked extensively with military service members and veterans, gaining a deep understanding of trauma, resilience, and the complexities of balancing mental health with identity, work, and relationships. I also have experience in inpatient child and adolescent psychiatry, where I supported youth and families through acute mental health needs. In addition, I serve as the primary psychiatric provider for a large assisted living community, caring for nearly 450 geriatric residents across multiple levels of support. These experiences allow me to approach care with a broad, nuanced perspective across all stages of life.

Amanda Mackanos

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Somerset, PA


I grew up in rural PA working on my grandfather's potato farm, learning equine therapy benefits starting at age eight. I joined the food industry as a waitress and worked throughout my RN undergrad.

I began my nursing career after earning my BSN from IUP in 2015, stepping directly into the fast‐paced world of behavioral health care within emergency room settings. Those early years shaped my clinical foundation and deepened my commitment to supporting individuals who have experienced trauma. I continued to grow, learning medicine, therapeutic communications skills, de-escalation techniques while working inpatient contracts at various facilities across PA, including child and adolescent units, adult and geriatric units, and correctional facility contracts.

Driven to expand efficient care through impact, I completed my MSN as a Psychiatric‐Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in November 2024. I initially provided inpatient hospital care, gaining valuable experiences in a new psychiatric treatment facility. As my career and family needs evolved, I discovered that remote psychiatric care offered the balance and flexibility that best supported both my professional goals and home life balance. My passion for farms, animals, and my large blended and busy family will help my clients see why I enjoy offering them a decade of behavioral health experience. With my advanced PMHNP training, I will deliver compassionate, accessible mental health support in a comfortable virtual setting.

PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING, thank you.

I am a board-certified Psychiatrist (medical doctor) providing virtual care throughout NY and PA. I taper medications. This means most of my patients want to safely reduce or ultimately stop taking psychiatric medications, and I guide them through that process safely and at their own pace. I include therapy in my 30-min follow up sessions, though do not offer weekly 1-hour therapy sessions. Many of my patients also work with a therapist.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Bensalem, PA


Hi, I’m a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I graduated from Drexel University with my Master's degree in Nursing. I then completed my Post-Graduate Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I have over twenty years of experience working in healthcare. Psych has always been my passion. My experiences encompass working with clients across the life span, including Child and Adolescents, Adult, and Geriatric patient populations. I’ve provided services to clients presenting with many psychiatric disorders, such as Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and more. I’m in the belief that mental health wellbeing is a priority. Human beings are resilient. Holistic care is the key to promoting better patient outcomes. Therefore, I believe that with an evidence-based practice treatment plan consisting of psychotherapy and/or a combination of psychotherapy and medication management, one will be able to control their mental health.


I’m a very compassionate, caring, and empathetic person. I strive to provide holistic care and collaborate with my clients to develop a treatment plan that they are comfortable with.

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 Mental Health Psychiatrist in Harrisburg, PA

Searching for psychiatrists in Harrisburg starts with understanding the type of care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists focus on talk therapy and support through approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or other care methods. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach to see who matches your needs.

In a smaller city like Harrisburg, local psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger Pennsylvania markets. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while still giving you access to a licensed psychiatrist who fits your schedule and care needs. Medication management appointments 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. Before booking, read each psychiatrist’s bio to compare appointment availability, session format, communication style, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Psychiatric care in Harrisburg 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 out-of-pocket cost before your first appointment. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, with many accepting new patients and matching your preferences for virtual or in-person care. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated costs, browse 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.

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