Nicole Sinkler

I provide psychiatric evaluation and medication management for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, insomnia, mood concerns, and women’s mental health concerns. As a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP), with a Doctor of Nursing Practice and more than 26 years of healthcare experience, I bring both psychiatric and medical insight to treatment.

This background is especially valuable when mental health symptoms overlap with sleep concerns, medical conditions, stress, or hormonal changes such as perimenopause. My approach is direct, thoughtful, and evidence-based, with treatment tailored to your symptoms, health history, and individual needs.

I provide convenient virtual psychiatric care for adults throughout Virginia.

My approach is individualized, evidence-based, and focused on your specific needs. I provide thoughtful psychiatric evaluation and medication management while considering mental health symptoms, medical history, current medications, and overall well-being. I value shared decision-making, clear communication, and helping you understand your treatment options so we can develop a plan that is both effective and appropriate for you.

Your first visit includes a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation of your current symptoms, psychiatric and medical history, medications, previous treatment, and treatment goals. We’ll review concerns such as mood, anxiety, sleep, focus, and daily functioning.

By the end of the visit, I’ll discuss my clinical impressions, treatment recommendations, and next steps. When medication is appropriate, we’ll review options, benefits, potential side effects, and follow-up monitoring so you leave with a clear plan for care.
