Hi there, I'm Ibrahim!

Bigy Thomas, MSN, PMHNP-BC

Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

You deserve a care plan that sees the whole person—not just a 15-minute prescription.

Taking the first step toward mental wellness can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to navigate it alone. I believe true healing happens in a trusted partnership. In our sessions, you will find a safe, non-judgmental space where your voice is heard, your story is respected, and your personal goals guide every decision we make together.

How We Will Work Together:

  • Care Beyond Medication: While precision medication management can be an effective tool, it is only one part of healing. I actively integrate evidence-based therapy skills (including CBT and Motivational Interviewing) to help you build practical, lasting coping strategies.
  • Mind-Body Connection: With more than 25 years of extensive clinical nursing experience, I look closely at how your physical health, sleep, stress, and lifestyle influence how you feel mentally and emotionally.
  • Culturally Sensitive & Personalized: Your background, values, and lived experiences matter. We will tailor your care to fit who you are and what you care about most.

Whether you are coping with anxiety, depression, mood changes, or major life transitions, we will work together at your pace to help you regain balance and feel empowered in your daily life.

Hi, I'm Lauren, and I'm so glad you're here. I know reaching out for help can feel overwhelming, and taking that first step isn't always easy. My hope is that from the moment we meet, you'll feel welcomed, heard, and never judged. With years of experience caring for individuals in medical and behavioral health settings, I've learned that healing begins when people feel safe enough to be themselves. I strive to create a compassionate, supportive space where you can ask questions, share openly, and know that you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in perinatal and maternal mental health, supporting women through pregnancy, postpartum, motherhood, and the many emotional changes that come with becoming a parent. I work with women experiencing postpartum anxiety, postpartum depression, pregnancy-related stress, maternal burnout, overwhelm, self-esteem concerns, and difficult life transitions. My goal is to provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel understood while developing practical tools to feel more grounded, confident, and connected to yourself again.

I also work with children and adolescents and bring more than seven years of experience as a school counselor into my therapy practice. I support younger clients navigating anxiety, behavioral challenges, academic stress, self-esteem, emotional regulation, social challenges, and other social-emotional concerns. My background in schools allows me to understand the many factors that can affect a child or teen both at home and in the classroom.

Whether you’re struggling to adjust to motherhood, feeling unlike yourself during pregnancy or postpartum, navigating anxiety or burnout, or looking for support for your child or teen, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Together, we’ll work toward greater understanding, healthier coping skills, and meaningful change in a space where you can feel safe, supported, and heard.
