Meet Chelesia Burkes-Brown

Experienced psychiatric nurse practitioner across the lifespan
I am a dedicated and compassionate Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with extensive experience in helping individuals at all stages of life. I specialize in providing comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, brief psychotherapy, and effective medication management for various mental health disorders. My practice also includes educating patients and their families about mental health, treatment options, and preventative care.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults to develop personalized treatment plans, carefully monitor progress, and make necessary adjustments to ensure optimal care. I utilize modern tools like electronic medical records and e-prescribing, ensuring a seamless and efficient healthcare experience.

In my previous roles, I've had the opportunity to work with children and adolescents in juvenile development centers, adults in the forensic setting, as well as students in university settings. I believe in a holistic approach, considering factors such as genetics, family dynamics, and cultural issues in my assessments. I am dedicated to constant learning and applying evidence-based practices to help my patients lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.

At the heart of my practice is a commitment to patient-centered care, open communication, and a genuine passion for mental health. I'm here to support you and your loved ones on the journey to better mental well-being.

My philosophy

I am passionate about ensuring that everyone has access to high-quality healthcare. Telehealth is a great way to bridge that gap, and my aim is to provide caring and knowledgeable support to help you become the best version of yourself. While I don't believe medications is the only solution to every issue, I do believe that it, along with other strategies, can sometimes be a helpful tool for making progress. My objective is to assist you on your journey toward mental wellness.
