I am Lydia Sharp, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) from Virginia, with 5 years of experience assisting children, adolescents, and adults with issues such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, anger problems, and other complex psychiatric conditions.
I earned my Master's degree in Nursing Education. I previously served over 26 years in the military in a variety of patient settings, including Medical-Surgical Nursing and Perioperative Nursing at Walter Reed Army Hospital, and as a Nurse Administrator in Army Combat Support Hospitals located in California and Fort Bragg, among others.
I will prescribe and manage medications, diagnose and assess psychiatric problems, identify health goals, record symptoms and problems, provide therapeutic treatment, and educate clients and their families about mental health. Partner with me to find the treatment methods that work best for you.
