Great to meet you!

Hello, I’m Shanell Gladson, PMHNP-BC. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 15 years of experience in both psychiatric and neurological nursing. I hold dual master’s degrees in nursing education and Psychiatric Mental Health, which have equipped me with a deep understanding of mental health conditions and the importance of education in empowering clients throughout their journey to wellness.

My approach to therapy

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of caring for individuals across the lifespan—from children as young as 6 to older adults up to 95 years old. I specialize in treating a wide range of mental health conditions including depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and PTSD.

My approach to care is holistic and person-centered. I believe that improving mental health begins with a strong foundation in wellness—addressing sleep, nutrition, lifestyle, and emotional support. When appropriate, I offer medication management as a tool to help bring balance and stability to your mental health.

What you can expect from me

I strive to create a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free space where clients feel heard, supported, and respected. Whether you're seeking help for the first time or looking for a provider who truly listens, I am here to walk alongside you toward healing and growth
