Anissa Womack

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Baton Rouge, LA


I'm Anissa, a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner specializing in the evaluation and treatment of ADHD and other co-existing conditions.

When you work with me you get care that is calm, attentive, and centered on you.

Who I Work With:

I support individuals who are struggling with poor performance at work/school, anxious thoughts, panic attacks, depressed mood, occupational burnout, and other related conditions.

You're in the right place if:

✓ You're constantly overwhelmed or stressed about upcoming events or tasks needing to be completed

✓ You've been working harder to keep up but you feel like you're failing and burning out

✓ You suspect you have ADHD and need an evaluation, or you've been told you don't have ADHD and would like a second opinion

✓ You need help getting school or workplace accommodations or a leave of absence due to mental stress

✓ Past providers rushed you or didn't listen to your concerns

If you’re here, you might be feeling weighed down by stress, sadness, or worry that seems hard to shake. On the outside you show up, get things done, and care for the people around you...but inside, it can feel heavy and exhausting. I want you to know you don’t have to carry that alone.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Louisiana with over 15 years of experience. My background includes helping adults work through anxiety, depression, and the lingering effects of past hurts. My approach is supportive and down-to-earth: we’ll move at your pace, focusing on practical tools and new ways of thinking that can help you find balance, clarity, and peace.

I believe therapy should feel like a safe place where you are truly heard and understood. Together, we’ll work to uncover what’s been holding you back, strengthen your confidence, and build the life you want to live.

Therapy and the journey to self-exploration can be hard. Together, we can navigate your path toward improved mental health and emotional well-being. My approach is solution-focused, centered on the immediate obstacles you are facing. While how you got here matters, what you choose to do next can have an even greater impact. As a clinical social worker with experience across private practice, hospital social work, parenting education, and community care, I bring a broad range of experience to support us in working through challenges together.

Shanna McMullen

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Louisiana


My name is Shanna McMullen, and I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing from Northwestern State University of Louisiana. I work with adults and seniors, and I bring a broad, inclusive, and genuinely creative approach to mental health care.

My clinical areas span anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, ADD/ADHD, panic disorders, chronic conditions, sleep disorders, stress, relationships, and family concerns. I offer dedicated support for maternal mental health — including prenatal and postpartum experiences — and I am deeply committed to affirming, knowledgeable care for LGBTQ+ individuals, including those navigating gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender experiences, as well as men's and women's mental health needs.

One thing that sets my practice apart: I incorporate Art Therapy as one of my therapeutic approaches — using creative expression as a powerful pathway to insight, healing, and self-discovery for clients who connect with that kind of work.

Whatever brings you here, you will be met with openness, care, and the full breadth of what I have to offer.
