Welcome!! I’m glad you’re here and ready to take this step toward your wellbeing.

As a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), I am passionate about providing compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to each individual’s unique needs. I work with children, adolescents, and adults navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, and other mood or stress-related conditions. In addition to these focus areas, I also support clients dealing with trauma, grief, panic disorders, OCD, relationship and family issues, maternal mental health, and cultural or identity-related stressors.

Fluent in English, Hindi, and Punjabi, I value inclusivity and cultural understanding in my work. My goal is to make clients feel truly seen, heard, and supported as they take steps toward emotional well-being and resilience.

Hi, I’m Hayley Johnson, MSN, PMHNP-BC. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 16 years of experience in nursing, including medical, rehabilitation, home health, and behavioral health settings.

I work with adolescents and adults (ages 12+) experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and stress-related conditions. Many of my clients are high-functioning individuals who feel overwhelmed internally, struggle with focus or emotional regulation, or feel stuck despite trying to manage things on their own.

My background in both medical and psychiatric care allows me to take a comprehensive approach. I consider the full picture, including medical history, lifestyle factors, and when appropriate, possible contributors such as thyroid imbalance, vitamin deficiencies, or hormonal changes.

I am committed to providing thoughtful, structured, and evidence-based psychiatric medication management in a way that feels collaborative and respectful.

Happy patient looking away

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 Ashburn

Finding psychiatrists in Ashburn starts with knowing which type of care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists provide talk therapy. Medication management may be part of care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, and other concerns. Some people start with a therapist, some start with a prescriber, and some work with both.

In Ashburn, local psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger Virginia cities, so virtual appointments can expand the number of clinicians who may fit your schedule and preferences. Medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, while some psychiatrists also offer therapy. As you compare Ashburn psychiatrists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer virtual or in-person care, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading each profile can help you understand clinical focus, communication style, and what to expect before you book.

Psychiatric care in Ashburn 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 price before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists who are accepting new patients and match your plan, with upfront pricing once your insurance is entered. You can review bios, compare availability, 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.
