Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Dr. Tameka Polk, DNP, PMHNP-BC. I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner providing mental health care for adolescents and adults experiencing conditions such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, and mood disorders.

My approach is patient-centered and collaborative, focusing on creating a supportive space where clients feel heard and involved in their treatment. I provide evidence-based medication management with an emphasis on improving daily functioning and overall quality of life.

I look forward to supporting you on your mental health journey.

My approach to therapy

I provide psychiatric care using a collaborative, patient-centered, and evidence-based approach. My clinical style is structured, focused, and grounded in current best practices, with an emphasis on accurate diagnosis, symptom stabilization, and functional improvement.

I specialize in the treatment of anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, PTSD, ADHD, and mood disorders in adult populations. I focus on medication management while also addressing overall functioning, emotional regulation, and quality of life.

Care is guided by clear communication, shared decision-making, and individualized treatment planning to support long-term psychiatric stability and improved daily functioning.

What you can expect from me

In the first session, clients can expect a thorough and supportive psychiatric evaluation focused on understanding their symptoms, experiences, and goals. We will explore what’s been affecting your mood, anxiety, or daily functioning and begin identifying what support will be most helpful.

Together, we’ll develop a clear, individualized treatment plan that may include medication options and next steps for care. The goal is to leave the first visit with clarity, direction, and a path forward toward improved stability and well-being.
