Now accepting NEW patients for 2026 appointments, with availability within 1–2 weeks of your initial request for adults 18+. For a faster response, request an appointment through our website or text 757-891-5166. My name is Mariam Bouanane-Smith, PMHNP-BC. I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive therapy for ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and other mental health needs. My approach is collaborative and supportive, with a focus on helping you feel heard, understood, and empowered throughout your mental health journey through compassionate, individualized psychiatric care.
As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I am committed to providing treatment tailored to people of all backgrounds. I understand that mental health issues can affect anyone, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach. My goal is to develop a customized treatment plan based on your unique needs, experiences, values, and preferences.
I use a range of treatments such as talk therapy, mindfulness practices, and medication management, if necessary. Your safety and comfort are my top priorities. I aim to create a warm, welcoming, and inclusive environment where you can freely share your thoughts and feelings and where we can work together to find what helps you feel your best.
