Dena Wampler

In a series of happy coincidences, my life took an unexpected turn when I secured a spot in the Vanderbilt School of Nursing Master’s program in the psychiatric/mental health specialty. Much of my practice has been in community mental health, which has been fulfilling, insightful, and educational. I’m comfortable diagnosing and providing medication management for depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and sleep issues, as well as providing education about these medications.

During our initial appointment, we will take time for a comprehensive review of your history. This includes past mental health care, current and previous medications, mood symptoms, and relevant medical history. We will also discuss treatment options, including appropriate medications and additional strategies that may help improve mood symptoms. Just as importantly, I want to get to know you as a person, including your interests, hobbies, and the things you enjoy, so our work together reflects who you are beyond your symptoms.

My goal is for you to feel at ease during our time together and confident in the treatment plan we create. I want you to feel truly heard—like your questions, concerns, and experiences matter, because they do. I never take for granted when someone shares their story with me—whether it’s something difficult, joyful, or anywhere in between. It’s a privilege to walk alongside you throughout this journey.

If you're ready to take the next step, you can book a 15-minute call with my team. They’ll help answer any initial questions, schedule your appointment with me, verify your insurance, and provide an estimated copay. You can also skip the call and book directly through Tandem Telehealth here: https://tandemtelehealth.com/team/dena-wampler.

I’m really looking forward to meeting you.
