Meet Jerica Foxworth

Dedicated Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with 5 years of specialized experience in child/adolescent mental health
I am a dedicated Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, board-certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center, with a Master’s in Nursing. With five years of experience in psychiatric nursing, I specialize in providing compassionate and comprehensive care to children, teens, and adults navigating crisis situations. My approach centers on creating a safe, supportive environment where individuals can explore their challenges, develop coping strategies, and take control of their mental health.

I am passionate about empowering my clients, equipping them with the tools they need to manage conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, mood disorders, bipolar disorders, ADHD, and schizophrenia. Using evidence-based treatment like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I strive to inspire hope and help my patients achieve mental wellness.

Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, reading, and spending time with my family, which helps me maintain a balanced and fulfilling life. If you are seeking support during a difficult time, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can work toward clarity and find a path forward.

My philosophy


In my practice, I prioritize a patient-centered approach that emphasizes empathy, respect, and active listening. I believe in building strong therapeutic relationships, where patients feel safe and valued, allowing for open communication and collaboration in their treatment journey. The values that guide me as a provider include integrity, compassion, and a commitment to holistic care, recognizing that mental health is deeply interconnected with emotional and spiritual well-being. My ultimate goal is to empower patients to achieve their mental health goals while fostering resilience and hope in their lives.
