You're the one people call when things fall apart. You're good at it — steady, competent, the person who knows what to do. And somewhere along the way you stopped having anywhere to put your own stuff.

So you can run the meeting, hold the crisis, answer the phone at 2 a.m. — and still not be able to make yourself open the mail. Competence and collapse live together far more often than anyone admits out loud.

I work with adults carrying that particular load: substance use and recovery, emotions that arrive at full volume with no dimmer switch, thoughts of self-harm or not wanting to be here, and the specific erosion that comes from caring for other people for a living. Helpers, clinicians, parents, first responders — people whose exhaustion doesn't have an obvious place to go. I work with teenagers too, often the ones in families like these.

My style is direct, warm, and collaborative. I'm not going to nod quietly for fifty minutes. We'll find what's actually driving things, build skills you can use on a Tuesday afternoon when it counts, and I'll tell you honestly what I'm seeing. You set the pace. I'll bring the structure.

Dr. Grace Lindsey

Dr. Grace Lindsey

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New Hampshire


Hi there! I’m Grace, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice from the University of the Incarnate Word in San Antonio, Texas. Before becoming a nurse practitioner, I worked across a variety of settings, including medical-surgical and specialty units at a Level I trauma center, COVID-19 units, burn and reconstructive care, correctional nursing, and hospice. During my advanced practice training, I gained experience in inpatient psychiatry, psychiatric emergency services, PHP/IOP, addiction treatment, and community-based care, and participated in a medical mission trip to Oaxaca, Mexico. These experiences have shaped my approach to mental health care: listen without judgment, look beyond the diagnosis, and treat the whole person. I am passionate about creating a safe and supportive environment where patients feel heard and understood, while advocating for those who may have difficulty finding their voice.
