Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Maryland


I am Vanessa Namugalu, MSN, RN, PMHNP‐BC I help teens and adults who are overwhelmed, stuck, or newly diagnosed get clear, practical psychiatric care that actually fits their life. I offer same‐week consults for psychiatric evaluation, medication management, ADHD and adult autism assessments, brief evidence‐based therapy (CBT, TF‐CBT, SFBT), telepsychiatry, crisis stabilization, and substance‐use assessment. I prioritize safety, transparency, and practical skills so you leave each visit with a clear next step.

With 15+ years of clinical experience across crisis stabilization, inpatient psychiatry, correctional health, acute medical‐surgical care, utilization review, and outpatient settings, I combine deep clinical judgment with a trauma‐informed, patient‐centered approach. I coordinate care with families and interdisciplinary teams and offer both secure virtual visits and in‐person appointments.

Ready to see if we’re a fit? Book a 30‐minute quick consult, many patients secure a same‐week slot. If you need urgent help, write “urgent” when booking and my team will prioritize your request.
