Hello! I am a Psychiatric NP and provide medication management services for those seeking treatment for their mental health issues. All appointments are done via telehealth. I offer flexible scheduling and accept insurance.
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.
I am a Board-Certified Psychiatrist and I have been treating patients across the lifespan for over 15 years. Once my caseload became full in 2022, I founded a small practice (Tandem Telehealth) where I now oversee a handful of talented psychiatric nurse practitioners and talk therapists. The team approach allows us to provide faster access to care for new patients and a higher level of support than you would likely receive from individuals working independently.
I’m Dr. Sharline Mashack, a board-certified Psychiatric/Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, and I specialize in treating patients with conditions ranging from ADHD to schizophrenia. I use a holistic approach combined with evidence-based practices to develop treatment plans, prescribe medications, and provide psychotherapy.
As a military spouse, I’ve had the opportunity to work in several areas of the healthcare system, learning from experienced leaders along the way. I earned both my Master’s and Doctorate in Nursing.
I am Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) trained in medication management and individual therapy. I approach my work caring about the whole person and not simply treating diagnoses. I am aided by knowledge gained from my education: Bachelor's of Science in Sociology, Bachelor's of Science in Nursing, and Master's of Science in Nursing. I also draw from my 11 year career as a registered nurse in intensive care units and my 3 years as a Nurse Practitioner, working at an outpatient clinic as well as an inpatient crisis unit.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Danville, VA
Finding psychiatrists in Danville starts with understanding what kind of care fits your needs. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication as part of ongoing mental health care. Psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can also diagnose and prescribe through their licenses. Therapists provide talk therapy and usually do not prescribe medication. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach to see whether their background matches what you are looking for.
In a smaller city like Danville, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Virginia markets. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while still letting you work with a licensed psychiatrist who fits your schedule and care needs. Psychiatry visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, especially when the focus is medication management. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, read each profile to compare appointment availability, session format, areas of focus, and communication style.
Psychiatric care in Danville 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 your first appointment. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, verify your insurance, view estimated costs upfront, and book directly when you are ready. This makes it easier to compare psychiatrists in Danville by clinical fit, availability, and coverage.
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.
