Dr. Michelle McBride

I’m Dr. Michelle S. McBride, DNP, PMHNP-BC, MBA, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate and comprehensive mental health care. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from Rush University in Chicago, IL. Before obtaining my doctorate, I was a board-certified psychiatric registered nurse, gaining extensive experience across various clinical settings, including inpatient psychiatry, psychiatric emergency services, community behavioral health, and forensic psychiatry (jail-based care).

I am experienced, confident in treating a wide range of mental health conditions, including:

• Schizophrenia & Schizoaffective Disorder
• Eating Disorders
• Psychosis
• Major Depressive Disorder
• Personality Disorders
• ADHD
• Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
• PTSD
• Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
• Bipolar Disorders
• Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD)
• Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED)

I believe in a collaborative, patient-centered approach to treatment. Educating my patients is a key part of my practice because informed patients can make empowered decisions about their care. After a thorough assessment, I take the time to explain all available treatment options—including therapy approaches, medication choices, and holistic interventions—so that we can create a plan that aligns with your comfort level and goals.

There’s no need to feel nervous! Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other. We will discuss your concerns, background, and treatment goals while working toward a clear plan that suits your needs. Together, we’ll explore treatment options, ensuring you feel confident in the next steps toward your well-being.
