Melissa Denniston

I am a PMHNP and FNP providing mental health care for adolescents and adults. My approach focuses on careful assessment, clear communication, and collaborative treatment planning. I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive therapy for conditions such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, and mood disorders.

I aim to create a respectful and supportive environment where clients feel comfortable discussing their concerns. Treatment focuses on understanding symptoms, improving coping skills, and helping clients reach better emotional balance and daily functioning.

My approach to care is collaborative and practical. I listen carefully, explain options in plain language, and involve clients in every decision. I focus on evidence-based treatment, realistic goals, and care plans that fit daily life. I aim to build trust and provide care that feels supportive rather than rushed.

During the first session, clients can expect a calm and welcoming environment. I focus on understanding concerns, reviewing history, and clarifying goals for care. We discuss symptoms, strengths, and priorities at a comfortable pace. The goal is to create a clear plan and establish a strong therapeutic connection from the start.
