I am a licensed clinical social worker in New York with over fifteen years of experience working as a therapist and a coach. I support clients navigating depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, OCD, parenting problems, career challenges, and life transitions.

I've worked with adolescents, couples, and families and I value creating a space where clients feel safe, understood and supported. I'm direct, yet compassionate, and I am not afraid to help you explore the "elephant in the room" so we can get to the root of what's keeping you stuck.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Kansas


Hello, my name is Patrice Dumas Veraguth, and I am a board‐certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). I work with adults and am passionate about providing thoughtful, evidence‐based mental health care that is collaborative, respectful, and individualized.

My treatment style is patient‐centered and collaborative. I believe that effective mental health care starts with listening, education, and shared decision‐making. When appropriate, I incorporate medication management alongside psychoeducation, practical coping strategies, and coordination with therapy or other supports. My goal is always to help clients feel informed, empowered, and supported in their care.

I strive to create a safe, non‐judgmental, and welcoming space where clients feel comfortable discussing their concerns and goals. Whether you are seeking help for focus and attention issues, mood changes, anxiety, or clarity around a diagnosis, I am committed to working with you to develop a treatment plan that fits your life and values.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood changes, trauma, or feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges? When mental health symptoms begin affecting your work, relationships, sleep, or daily functioning, it can feel difficult to know where to turn. You don't have to face it alone.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 15 years of healthcare experience providing compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for adults throughout Washington. I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, and other mental health conditions through personalized medication management and supportive therapy.

My approach is collaborative, holistic, and centered on your unique needs and goals. I take the time to understand your experiences, concerns, and strengths so we can develop a treatment plan that helps you feel more balanced, focused, and in control of your life. I believe healing begins when people feel heard, respected, and supported.

I currently offer convenient telehealth appointments and strive to provide a welcoming, judgment-free environment where you can feel comfortable discussing your concerns. Taking the first step toward better mental health can be challenging, but support is available. If you're ready to explore treatment options, I invite you to reach out to schedule a consultation.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • Kansas City, KS


If you’re feeling weighed down by anxiety, depression, trauma, mood shifts, or ADHD symptoms and wondering whether medication could help, you’re not alone. I work with teens and adults navigating mood and anxiety disorders, PTSD, OCD, ADHD, and stress-related challenges.

Clients often tell me they appreciate my mix of medical expertise and genuine compassion. With a background in both psychiatry and intensive medical care, I understand how closely the mind and body are connected. My goal is to make care accessible and consistent, which is why I offer flexible scheduling and telehealth appointments.

In our first sessions, we’ll review your history, clarify your symptoms, and determine whether medication is appropriate. If it is, we’ll build a treatment plan that feels realistic, evidence-based, and aligned with your goals and overall health.

Outside of work, I find balance through yoga, comedy, time with my dog, and enjoying sunny days — reminders that healing comes from both steady progress and moments of joy.

I believe in meeting my clients where they're at. They are the expert in their own story. I'm just here to listen, help process, maybe challenge, and encourage them in their journey. I went to Newman University for my Master's Degree and went on to get my Clinical License. I have worked with varying populations including teens, adults, geriatrics, the prison population, couples counseling, and Christian Counseling. I enjoy working with people who have been through trauma or grief or have experienced anxiety or depression.

Therapist

I believe therapy works best when you feel understood, respected, and never judged. My approach is collaborative and practical, helping you develop skills that you can use outside of our sessions rather than simply talking through problems week after week. I primarily use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), an evidence-based approach that helps people respond differently to difficult thoughts and emotions while taking meaningful action toward the life they want to build.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, or overwhelming stress, my goal is to create a space where you can be honest about what you're experiencing and feel supported as we work toward lasting change. I strive to balance compassion with directness, offering both validation and practical strategies to help you move forward in a way that aligns with your values.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or frustrated with patterns that don’t seem to change. Maybe anxiety is constant, depression has drained your motivation, ADHD is affecting your focus, or past trauma continues to resurface. You want clarity, stability, and relief — not just for today, but long term. You want to feel like yourself again, function better at school or work, and regain control of your emotions instead of feeling controlled by them.
