Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Pretia Carpenter, a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and mood disorders in children, teens, and adults. With experience in both telehealth and in-person care, I offer compassionate, personalized support to help you through your journey. I believe in whole-person healing, and I’m here to walk alongside you on your journey to wellness.

My approach to therapy

I take a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental approach with every client. My style is collaborative, meaning we work together to create a treatment plan that fits your needs, goals, and lifestyle. I combine medication management with holistic care when appropriate, and I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and mood disorders. Whether you’re navigating a tough season or managing a long-term condition, I’m here to listen, guide, and support you every step of the way.

What you can expect from me

My clients can expect to leave sessions feeling heard, supported, and empowered. My goal is to create a safe, calm space where you can be yourself and talk openly without fear of judgment. Together, we’ll work on building insight, developing healthy coping skills, and creating realistic goals for healing and growth. Over time, expect to experience improved mood, better stress management, and a stronger sense of control over your mental health.
