Great to meet you!

I'm Melody Claiborne, a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) licensed in Washington and California. I specialize in ADHD, anxiety, and depression, offering thorough diagnostic evaluations and personalized medication management for adults. I believe in care that sees the whole person — not just a diagnosis. Having witnessed patients go unheard during their most vulnerable moments, I built my practice around genuine advocacy and connection. I work at your pace, in a safe and supportive environment where your concerns are fully heard and your goals guide your treatment.

My approach to therapy

My approach is compassionate, patient-centered, and empowering. I take time to understand your unique story, values, and goals before building a tailored treatment plan. I combine evidence-based psychiatric care with genuine advocacy — because feeling truly heard is the foundation of healing.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, expect a warm, judgment-free conversation. I'll take time to understand your history, concerns, and goals — there's no rush. You'll leave with a clear plan and, most importantly, the confidence that you have a provider truly in your corner.
