ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Reno, NV

I work hard to be clinically informed and Christ centered in all that I do with my clients.

Important note: I don't schedule through Headway contact me for availability.

I am becoming very specialized in relational issues, whether meeting with couples or individuals. As a society, so many are struggling in relationships, connections, and sexuality. I look at these issues largely from a developmental perspective meaning increased self- knowledge can make a huge difference in getting unstuck from negative patterns.

Hi, I’m Akisha Toussaint, a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.

Wellness isn't just about managing symptoms—it’s about feeling like yourself again. If you're dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, sleep issues, or just feeling off balance, you deserve support that addresses every part of your health—mind and body.

Began my career as a case manager, working with children and young adults experiencing challenges managing their emotions. Working with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, I then completed my Masters in Counseling degree, withan emphasis on Marriage, Family and Child therapy. My experience assisting in Couples counseling sessions has encouraged me to focus on the "Union's" and the "Individual's" needs of the relationship. Providing stress management skills for phase of life transition for the younger and older population has been my pleasure.

Hello, I welcome you to reach out on your mental health journey, whether you are just getting started, or selecting a new provider. I enjoy learning from my patients in order to build our therapeutic alliance. I have a background working with children, teens and adults in a multitude of settings. I have more than 25 years experience in working with people who are neurodivergent. I can provide behavior therapy as well. I look forward to hearing from you!

Every person experiences seasons of life that can feel overwhelming. Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, substance use, grief, or major life transitions, my goal is to provide a safe, collaborative, and evidence-based therapeutic experience where meaningful, lasting change can occur.

For nearly two decades, I have had the privilege of serving individuals, couples, and families throughout Nevada as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. In addition to direct clinical practice, I have served as a Clinical Director, executive leader, clinical supervisor, consultant, educator, and program developer, helping develop innovative behavioral healthcare programs and clinical services across Nevada. These diverse experiences have allowed me to work with individuals from virtually every walk of life while treating a broad range of complex behavioral health concerns.

My approach is individualized, practical, and grounded in research-supported treatment. I integrate evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, trauma-informed care, and person-centered therapy to develop treatment plans tailored to each client's unique strengths, needs, and goals.

I believe people are far more than the challenges that bring them to therapy. My commitment is to provide compassionate, clinically excellent care while helping clients build resilience, strengthen relationships, overcome obstacles, and create healthier, more meaningful lives.

Hi, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor from Nevada, Arizona, and South Carolina. I’ve been described as tenacious when I advocated for community mental health services in Arizona. Now, I am encouraging personal advocacy.

I have 20 years of experience in mental health nursing and 5 years as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life, supporting them through challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mental health concerns.

I am a dedicated mental health provider committed to delivering compassionate, evidence-based care through convenient telehealth services. My practice focuses on treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, and PTSD, with an emphasis on individualized care and thoughtful medication management. I strive to create a supportive, judgment-free environment where clients feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their treatment. My goal is to help you achieve meaningful, lasting improvements in your mental health and overall quality of life.

My ideal client is someone who is ready to make a change even if they aren’t sure how. I work with many clients who struggle with all types of trauma, mood disorders, neurodivergence and often a combination of these traits. I often work with my clients to help them set attainable goals and break down complex situations piece by piece. I also strive to make a safe space for LGBTQ+ and encourage expressions of all gender identities and sexualities. Vulnerability is key to healing and I welcome anyone who is ready to begin and honest conversation about their goals.

I approach therapy as a collaborator. My method is client-centered and humanistic. I aim to accompany my clients in achieving the goals brought into the therapeutic environment with openness, empathy, and compassion. Creating goals in small steps is vital for progress and change. Identifying insecure attachment and dysfunctional patterns will lead to lasting change. My clients can learn to recognize unhealthy cycles and gain a deeper understanding of their attachment styles.

Currently, I do not provide therapy for couples or minors.
