Hi, I’m Casey. As a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and the founder of Nexus Psychiatric Services, I built this practice for people seeking exceptional clinical care from an approachable, down-to-earth provider.
My professional foundation comes from my years of experience in the acute inpatient psychiatric setting. Navigating these high-intensity settings taught me to bring calming stability to those who are struggling, and I carry that into every outpatient telehealth visit. Today, my practice supports adults, adolescents, and children ages 6 and up through the everyday challenges that arrive when living with diagnoses such as anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. Beyond general psychiatric care, I offer a deep clinical commitment to neurodivergent individuals and those suffering from identity issues. Whether you are feeling exhausted by life, exploring your identity, or trying to help your child thrive, you are welcome to show up to our sessions exactly as you are.
You may be functioning on the outside, but inside you know something isn’t working. You might feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck, disconnected from yourself, misaligned inside or within your life, or unsure of what comes next. Perhaps you’re navigating depression, stress, a life or relationship transition, workplace challenges, self-doubt, or simply realizing that the way things are no longer feels like the way you want them to be. I help you make sense of what feels complicated, explore what's possible, reconnect with your strengths, and gain clarity about what you want to create moving forward.

I am very open minded and non-judgmental. I believe you will enjoy the time spent.
I have experience supporting people with depression, anxiety, OCD, and trauma.
Life can change in an instant. Whether you’re navigating grief, anxiety, caregiver stress, burnout, a medical diagnosis, or a major life transition, you don’t have to face it alone. With experience in pediatric hospital social work, clinical leadership, and many other areas, I’ve supported individuals and families through some of life’s most difficult moments. I’m passionate about helping people move from simply surviving to truly living again.
If you’re looking for someone who will simply nod along, I may not be the right fit, and that’s okay. I believe growth comes from feeling both supported and challenged. I’ll listen with compassion, celebrate your strengths, and gently encourage you to face the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling heard, empowered, and one step closer to the life you want.
I love what I do. I've been providing therapy in various settings for over 4 years, and I bring a direct but very human style to the therapy room. I am certified in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and I love working with Adult ADHD, folks in recovery from substance use, and women who might be struggling with anxiety and depression and just the general overwhelm of life and putting one foot in front of the other.

Healing | Recovery | Change
I believe that people as unique individuals have the capacity to grow, heal and change, learning new ways for improving their health and well-being in all areas of life including biological, psychological, social, and spiritual. Personal growth is facilitated by setting and working toward goals, assessing and building strengths in these areas to develop skills and resources that help them manage life challenges.
