Hello, my name is Dr. Paula Robinson, DNP, PMHNP-BC, and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, patient-centered mental health care. I hold a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree and have several years of clinical experience working with individuals experiencing a wide range of mental health conditions.
Over the past four years, I have provided care to patients dealing with disorders such as depression, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, and other complex mental health challenges. My approach to care focuses on creating a safe, respectful, and supportive environment where patients feel heard and empowered to participate in their treatment.
I believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. My treatment approach combines evidence-based medication management, supportive therapy, and collaborative care to help individuals achieve improved mental wellness and quality of life.
My goal is to partner with each patient to develop a personalized treatment plan that supports long-term stability, resilience, and emotional well-being.
Watching your child or teen struggle can feel isolating, but you are not alone.
My name is Paula Gravitt, and I'm a board-certified Child and Adolescent Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and a proud Virginia Commonwealth University alum. My professional focus is solely on young people. My extensive clinical background—combined with a deep personal perspective—allows me to connect with families and guide them toward lasting change.
I specialize in treating children and teens facing complex challenges, including:
• Autism (co-occurring mental health issues)
• ADHD, OCD
• Anxiety, Depression, and Mood Disorders
• Challenging Behaviors and Self-Injurious Behaviors
• Improving Parent-Child Communication and Family Dynamics
As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I believe mental health care should be collaborative and centered on who you are as an individual. I support adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, mood disorders, and more. Through trauma-informed care, evidence-based practices, individualized treatment plans, comprehensive medication management, and therapeutic support, I create a judgment-free space where we can show up authentically and work together toward meaningful progress. My background includes experience as an outpatient psychiatric provider, inpatient psychiatric registered nurse, and in community reproductive health, allowing me to bring a broad and well-rounded perspective to the care I provide. I hold a Master of Science in Nursing and a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Sociology, which have shaped my understanding of the many varying factors that impact mental health.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Manassas, VA
Finding psychiatrists in Manassas starts with understanding the difference between psychiatric care and therapy. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, a psychiatrist may be a good fit. Some people start with a therapist, some start with a prescriber, and some work with both. Look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties, training, and care style match what you want help with.
In a smaller city like Manassas, local psychiatry appointments may vary by office location, schedule, and availability. Virtual appointments can expand your options across Virginia while still giving you access to psychiatric care from home. Medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. As you compare options, check whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios can help you understand each psychiatrist’s approach, communication style, and experience before you book.
Psychiatric care in Manassas 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 out-of-pocket expense before care begins. Headway makes it easier to find psychiatrists who match your needs, check whether they accept your plan, and see if they are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated costs upfront, compare psychiatrist 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.
