Anissa Womack

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Arizona


I'm Anissa, a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner specializing in the evaluation and treatment of ADHD and other co-existing conditions.

When you work with me you get care that is calm, attentive, and centered on you.

Who I Work With:

I support individuals who are struggling with poor performance at work/school, anxious thoughts, panic attacks, depressed mood, occupational burnout, and other related conditions.

You're in the right place if:

✓ You're constantly overwhelmed or stressed about upcoming events or tasks needing to be completed

✓ You've been working harder to keep up but you feel like you're failing and burning out

✓ You suspect you have ADHD and need an evaluation, or you've been told you don't have ADHD and would like a second opinion

✓ You need help getting school or workplace accommodations or a leave of absence due to mental stress

✓ Past providers rushed you or didn't listen to your concerns

Therapist

Virtual • Arizona


100% virtual telehealth counseling provided! Currently accepting clients who are physically located in Massachusetts, North Carolina, Arizona, or Oregon. (I am unable to see clients residing in Virginia at this time. If you’re located in one of the other states, I welcome the chance to work with you.)

I work with adults who have noticed their use of substances becoming disruptive to their life. They want to change their patterns and habits before other areas are affected. My approach is practical and evidence-based. Understanding that changing habits can be deeply challenging, I provide a safe, straightforward place where sustainable habits can be built, without judgment.
