“I am passionate about helping individuals and families feel heard, supported, and understood. My 20 plus years of professional background includes working closely with children, adults, and families in both home and community-based settings, addressing concerns such as behavioral challenges, family conflict, trauma, and life stressors.
I have a special interest in supporting families, strengthening relationships, and helping clients navigate difficult transitions with confidence and clarity.”
Many people seek psychiatric care when anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, trauma, or persistent stress begin interfering with work, relationships, school, or daily life. Whether you're experiencing symptoms for the first time or have been struggling for years, my goal is to provide thoughtful, evidence-based care tailored to your individual needs.
As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, supportive psychotherapy, and pharmacogenomic testing when clinically appropriate. Pharmacogenomic testing can provide additional information about how your genetics may influence the way your body processes or responds to certain psychiatric medications. While it does not predict exactly which medication will work best, it can be a useful tool when selecting or adjusting treatment, particularly for individuals who have experienced medication side effects, limited benefit from previous treatments, or multiple medication trials.
I believe treatment works best when it is collaborative, personalized, and focused on your goals. Together, we’ll consider your symptoms, history, preferences, previous treatment experiences, and, when helpful, pharmacogenomic information to develop a treatment plan that feels both clinically sound and individualized to you.

Hi there. I'm so happy you found my counseling profile. I have worked at community mental health centers providing outpatient counseling for 8 years.

Hi, I'm Jessica! I became a psychiatric nurse practitioner because I wanted to help people grow and be their true authentic selves. I work with adults and children managing anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, sleep difficulties and PTSD. I care most about really listening before jumping to a plan. I take time to understand what someone actually needs before recommending medication or next steps. My schedule is opening up right now, which means I have real flexibility for new clients. I want every person I work with to feel comfortable asking questions and to feel like they have a genuine partner in their care. I am passionate about treating children and women as I feel that these populations are underrepresented and under treated in healthcare. I am dual certified as a Family Nurse Practitioner with 8 years experience and recently certified as Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I decided to become a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner after my son was diagnosed with autism, speech and cognitive delay.

My areas of clinical focus include trauma and PTSD, high-functioning anxiety/perfectionism, executive burnout, work-life balance, relationship concerns, grief and bereavement, life transitions, workplace stressors, and the unique experiences of military veterans and immigrants. I also have a strong interest in cultural diversity and the ways culture, identity, work, relationships, and life circumstances can shape emotional and psychological well-being.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Indianapolis
Searching for postpartum therapists in Indianapolis starts with finding someone whose training matches the support you want. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you review options, look for therapists who list perinatal mental health, postpartum support, or experience with new parents in their profiles. A certification such as PMH-C can also signal focused training in perinatal mental health care.
Indianapolis has a broad network of therapists, which can make it easier to find options across neighborhoods, schedules, and care formats. For new parents, practical fit matters: appointment availability, infant care, physical recovery, and commute time can shape what works week to week. Virtual sessions can expand access when getting to an office is harder, while in-person care may fit better if you prefer a dedicated space outside the home. Reading therapist bios can help you compare communication style, listed specialties, and whether a free phone consultation is offered before you book.
Therapy in Indianapolis can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before starting care. Headway makes it easier to search for postpartum therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
