Hello, I’m DeAnn Thompson, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner specializing in anxiety, depression, work-related stress, and burnout.

I work with busy adults who may be keeping up with work and everyday responsibilities while privately feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or simply not like themselves.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and personalized, combining thoughtful psychiatric care and medication management to help you feel better, regain balance, and improve your overall well-being.

I have been a psychotherapist in private practice for about forty years. After receiving my MSW, I felt I needed additional training to work effectively with clients. I studied psychoanalysis for three years, and I received a certificate in psychoanalytic oriented psychotherapy. It was extremely helpful because of the intensive supervision I received.
