Kristina Cooper

I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care for adults. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, OCD, and substance use concerns using a personalized, whole-person approach. My background includes experience in outpatient psychiatry, addiction medicine, and college mental health. I strive to create a warm, collaborative, and judgment-free environment where clients feel safe to be themselves. My goal is to help you better understand your mental health, build effective coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I provide compassionate, collaborative, and evidence-based care tailored to your unique needs and goals. My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), DBT-informed skills, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care when appropriate. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, OCD, life transitions, and substance use concerns. Together, we'll develop practical strategies to improve emotional well-being, build resilience, and support lasting change. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered.

In our first session, we’ll focus on getting to know you and your symptoms, experiences, strengths, and goals. Together, we’ll develop a personalized, evidence-based treatment plan focused on medication management, with brief supportive therapy incorporated when appropriate. Please note that I maintain a non-controlled medication practice and do not provide standalone psychotherapy. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your individual needs and goals.
