Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Georgia


My name is Jazmine. I am a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). My passion is helping people take charge of their mental health and overall well-being. Life can be challenging, and whether you’re managing anxiety, depression, trauma, or just feeling overwhelmed, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

I believe in a holistic, patient-centered approach to care—one that prioritizes your unique experiences, goals, and strengths. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to take positive steps toward healing. Mental health care shouldn’t be intimidating or one-size-fits-all, so I work with you to find the best strategies and treatments tailored to your needs.

Building a strong, trusting partnership with my patients is at the heart of my practice. I know that small steps can lead to big transformations, and I’m committed to walking alongside you on your journey to better mental health.

I look forward to working with you and helping you build the tools and confidence to live a healthier, more balanced life!

If your child is struggling with big feelings, hard behaviors, or school-related stress, you have found a safe place. I have worked alongside kids, teens, and their families since

2005, creating a playful, welcoming space where they can finally feel understood. I draw from play therapy, AutPlay, and creative approaches tailored to your child's

personality and developmental stage. I also partner with caregivers, teachers, and other supports so your child is not doing this work alone. My goal is to help them

understand themselves better, build confidence, and feel more in control of their emotions and choices.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Atlanta, GA


You’re the one who usually has everything under control, but lately, the "strong" version of you feels like a mask that’s getting too heavy to wear. Whether you’re a mother wondering why you feel detached from the life you worked so hard to build, or a parent exhausted by the cycle of ADHD-related challenges—you don’t have to carry this alone.

I provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can stop surviving and start thriving. My approach is patient-centered, trauma-informed, and evidence-based, tailored to move you toward a life where you feel present, connected, and capable.

I specialize in:

  • Perinatal & Maternal Mental Health: Navigating the "new reality" of motherhood.
  • High-Achieving Professionals: Managing burnout, perfectionism, and "mental load."
  • Neurodiversity-Affirming Care: Supporting parents and children navigating ADHD and behavioral hurdles.

Why Work With Me?

I offer a "cozy" office experience in Houston, TX, and convenient virtual care across 7 states ( DE, FL, GA, IA, KS, MT, and TX). My goal is to make mental health easy, accessible and relatable.

I want therapy to feel like a space where you’re truly heard, understood, and not judged. Together, we’ll create a supportive, honest relationship where you can show up as your real self and work toward the changes that matter most to you. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship issues, grief, stress, personality disorders, substance use, and co‐occurring concerns, and I draw on my crisis work background to support you through really tough moments. I also love helping you understand how your brain, emotions, and behaviors work so you can make changes that last beyond our sessions.
