I’m Krishawnda (or Shawnda for short)! I’ve been working as a nurse since 2011. I was a RN for 9 years and have been a psychiatric nurse practitioner since 2020. My BSN was obtained from the University of Kentucky. My graduate degree is from Eastern Kentucky University. I have worked in geriatric psych, adult psych, and child psychiatry.
All appointments are via telehealth. We will discuss stressors, victories, accomplishments, and struggles. If prescribed medication we will discuss needed adjustments. Talk therapy and medication management are my key approaches. However, I do not believe that medication is the answer for all concerns. Non-pharmacological approaches are discussed and encouraged.
The goal for all sessions is to leave with a plan to improve stability in each person’s life. This does not mean we will always get it right the first time. Nor does it mean that the stability comes overnight. Together, we will take necessary and safe steps to achieve optimal outcomes.
