Hi, I’m Hayley Johnson, MSN, PMHNP-BC. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 16 years of experience in nursing, including medical, rehabilitation, home health, and behavioral health settings.

I work with adolescents and adults (ages 12+) experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and stress-related conditions. Many of my clients are high-functioning individuals who feel overwhelmed internally, struggle with focus or emotional regulation, or feel stuck despite trying to manage things on their own.

My background in both medical and psychiatric care allows me to take a comprehensive approach. I consider the full picture, including medical history, lifestyle factors, and when appropriate, possible contributors such as thyroid imbalance, vitamin deficiencies, or hormonal changes.

I am committed to providing thoughtful, structured, and evidence-based psychiatric medication management in a way that feels collaborative and respectful.

Therapist

Welcome! My name is Michelle Hebert, LCMHC. I am glad you have decided to explore therapy. Sometimes our life experiences can feel like a rock hitting the water’s surface, creating ripples that can impact every area of your life. Resilience is the dynamic capacity to navigate and bounce back from life's inevitable hardships. Rather then erasing emotional pain, resilience acts as a protective buffer the equips us to process pain without becoming overwhelmed. While therapy can be challenging, I am here to support and encourage you as you find fulfillment and empowerment.

Have you done a lot of work on yourself, but still feel stuck in the same patterns?

You may understand your past, your triggers, and your relationships, but still feel overwhelmed or pulled back into the same cycles. You might be the one others rely on, while quietly feeling unsure of your needs or how to choose yourself without guilt.

I work with women who are ready to move beyond insight into real change. Together, we explore how past experiences are still shaping how you think, feel, and respond, so you can feel more grounded, clear, and like yourself again.
