Great to meet you!

My name is Donnette Hassell, MSN, APRN, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner. Throughout my career, I have cared for patients across a variety of healthcare settings, developing a strong foundation in compassionate, patient-centered care.

I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive therapy for adolescents, adults, and older adults. I have experience treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, stress-related conditions, insomnia, and other mental health concerns. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to achieve their mental wellness goals.

My approach to therapy

I believe in a collaborative and holistic approach to mental health treatment. Every client is unique, and I work closely with each individual to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses their specific needs, goals, and circumstances.

My approach combines evidence-based psychiatric care, medication management when appropriate, psychoeducation, and supportive therapeutic techniques. I focus on building a trusting relationship with my clients and helping them understand their symptoms, treatment options, and progress. I strive to treat the whole person by considering emotional, physical, social, and lifestyle factors that impact mental health and overall well-being.

What you can expect from me

During the first appointment, we will spend time getting to know one another and discussing your concerns, symptoms, medical history, mental health history, and treatment goals. I will conduct a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation to gain a thorough understanding of your needs.

Clients can expect a welcoming, nonjudgmental, and supportive environment where they can openly discuss their experiences. Together, we will develop an initial treatment plan that may include therapy recommendations, lifestyle strategies, medication options if appropriate, and clear goals for moving forward. My priority is to ensure that you feel comfortable, understood, and confident about your path toward improved mental health and wellness.
