Tamika Braveheart

As a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner in rural Virginia, as well as, a decade abroad working for the U.S. government. My experience includes acute crisis management, addiction medicine, community health, and maternal and child health. Medication management, therapy, and holistic care for depression, anxiety, adjustment challenges, traumatic experiences, and bipolar disorders are my main areas of focus. Particular interest and expertise in working with children and families in foster care.

You're doing your best but you just don't feel like yourself and just want a win! My style is kind and compassionate but I'm also honest and direct. I don't have a one-size-fits-all approach as each person has a unique backstory and strengths that will guide our work together.

In our first session, we'll spend time getting to know one another. What brings you to care, what do you hope to achieve, and what strengths do you have that we can build on? Please come as you are--kids in the background, on your lunch break with mustard on your face, or haven't showered in a few days--this is your time and this is a judgement-free zone!
