Franklin, TN 37067
Hi! My name is Kathleen (Katie), and I'm a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I'm a native of New Orleans, but have lived in the Nashville area since 2009. Mental health has always been a passion of mine, even before I became a nurse. My nursing experience includes 6 years in the emergency department, where I saw a lot of people struggling with emotional issues. My most eye-opening experience was working in Manhattan during Covid. I saw first-hand how emotionally devastated people were, and how badly mental health services were needed to deal with the emotional fallout.

Life is difficult. Live long enough, and you will face problems too complicated, painful, or persistent to manage alone. Many people try to push through anxiety, low mood, poor sleep, stress, irritability, grief, focus problems, or responsibilities that do not slow down. I work with adults and teens 13+ who have reached the point where they want more specialized psychiatric care. Based in Chattanooga and serving Tennessee by telehealth, I offer after-hours appointments for people whose work, school, family, or life demands make traditional appointments harder.
