I am a dually board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC) and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a Master of Science in Nursing from East Tennessee State University. My background spans both primary care and mental health, which gives me a unique perspective on how physical and emotional well-being are deeply connected. I have spent my career working in hospital and healthcare settings, and I bring that hands-on clinical experience into every interaction with my patients. I am also trained in Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) and have experience in healthcare management and nursing education — all of which inform the thorough, evidence-based care I provide.
Hello, my name is Benjamin Watkins. I look forward to working with you to make the positive changes you desire in your life. I have worked in the field since I was 19, starting as a Mentor. Helping others is my passion in life. I worked with children, adolescents, and parents in the foster care system, overcoming trauma and developing positive attachments. I have worked with a variety of issues.
Hi there! My name is Kaylyn, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Virginia. I graduated with my MSW from Radford University in Virginia, and have been practicing for 4 years. I am passionate and committed to supporting others through their mental health & healing journey. I am truly honored to bear witness to the lives and experiences of the clients I work with. I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for sharing and growth.
Making the decision to start therapy is a profound investment of your time, energy, and vulnerability. If you are looking for a blank-slate clinician who simply nods and listens, we might not be the best fit. I offer a highly engaged, malleable, and unflinching partnership.
My approach is rooted in the belief that while the work of untangling our lives is deeply structural, the room itself doesn't always have to feel heavy. I bring a grounded warmth to my practice—which means knowing how to sit quietly in the gravity of a difficult truth, but also knowing when to break the tension, exhale, and find the light in the sheer complexity of being human. I won’t just sit in silence while you do all the heavy lifting; I am an active collaborator who adapts to exactly where you are.
