Psychiatric Mental Health NP

After working 15+ years as an RN I am so excited to be making a difference as a provider of mental healthcare. Working from home allows me to offer better calendar flexibility to accommodate different schedules and to take care of my aging dogs at home!

I am compassionate and empathetic and here to help you reach your goals and become the best version of yourself.

During my training I worked primarily in community behavioral health. It is my goal to beneficially serve the community and provide support to those who need it while hoping to reduce barriers and stigmas that prevent people from getting the care they really need and deserve. Access is for everyone and I want to be a beacon of that message.

I have a certificate in Spanish for Healthcare Providers and as soon as I become a little more fluent I will be able to extend my services, accurately, into a second language.

Christina Miller

Christina Miller

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I’m Christina, a warm, down-to-earth therapist who genuinely enjoys getting to know people and understanding what makes them who they are.

I’ve spent more than 15 years working with people in schools, hospitals, community mental health, crisis intervention, and trauma-focused settings. Along the way, I’ve supported veterans, first responders, trauma and abuse survivors, parents, professionals, adolescents, and neurodivergent individuals.

My path into therapy has given me the opportunity to sit with people during some incredibly difficult moments. It has taught me that there is almost always more to someone than what we see on the surface - and that life rarely fits neatly into categories.

I’m interested in the whole picture: your experiences, relationships, strengths, struggles, sense of humor, values, and the things you may not always understand about yourself.

I also believe therapy can be both meaningful and human. There will be serious conversations, but there can also be laughter, honesty, and those moments when something finally clicks.

You don’t have to have an impressive story or a perfect explanation for why you’re here. We can start with wherever life has you right now.

Cynthia Hickman

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Sanford, NC


Are you feeling stressed, overwhelmed with life, exhausted, anxious, or depressed? Have you experienced a stressful or traumatic life event? Perhaps you struggle with a chronic illness. Maybe you struggle with a difficult child or teen. Or maybe your partner has been unfaithful. Are you tired of feeling isolated and hopeless? You want- no, you need- things to change, but you don’t where to begin. Asking for help can be one of the most difficulty things to do, but I would be honored to help you discover your inner strength and begin your journey to healing and being who you are meant to be.


I have received training in Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy (IPSRT) for managing bipolar disorders as well as certification as a clinical trauma professional. A nationally certified counselor, I am also a member of LPC Association of NC and the International Association of Trauma Professionals (IATP).


I am passionate about helping people triumph over trauma, learn mindfulness-based practices to reduce stress and manage anxiety, improve self-esteem, understand the relationship among our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors (CBT) and learn to tolerate distress in their lives.
