Connor Cottrell

Starting therapy or seeking mental health care can feel intimidating, and I want my clients to feel comfortable being themselves from the beginning. I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who takes a thoughtful, nonjudgmental approach to care. I believe good mental health treatment starts with listening, understanding the whole person, and building a relationship based on trust. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported.

My approach is collaborative, individualized, and grounded in evidence-based psychiatric care. I take the time to understand your symptoms, experiences, goals, and what may be contributing to how you’re feeling rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. Together, we’ll develop a treatment plan that fits your needs and your life. When appropriate, this may include medication management, education, behavioral strategies, and practical tools to help you make meaningful progress.

• Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and understand what brought you to care. We’ll talk about your current concerns, mental health history, goals, medications, lifestyle, and other factors that may be affecting how you’re feeling. Most importantly, you can expect to be listened to without judgment. By the end of our first session, we’ll have a clearer understanding of what you’re looking for and begin creating a treatment plan together.
