Getting to know Ailish Samuelson
I am a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. I was born and raised in upstate New York. I received my RN from Southern Vermont College. I then earned my BSN from SUNY Plattsburgh while working full-time as a nurse manager of one of the wings of the Vermont Veterans Home. I found my love of mental health diagnosis and treatment while working with veterans and their families, and my unit became the unofficial unit for the most challenging mental health patients. This inspired me to earn my Master's in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing from the State University of New York, Stony Brook. I have experience working with people of all ages and backgrounds, including those with substance use disorders.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I am about providing a patient-centered, science-based, integrative approach to care. I provide personalized treatment plans considering the patient history, lifestyle factors, and genetic variables to treat illness as well as promote overall health and wellness. When I’m not working, I’m enjoying time with my blended family of 10 children, and taking care of the inhabitants of our animal sanctuary, which consists of 6 dogs, 3 cats, 4 alpacas, 2 horses, and 2 pigs. My husband and I also enjoy mountain biking and surfing.

- Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork

If you can’t provide something a patient is looking for and had mentioned in their notes to you then don’t waste an entire appointment to make your money then tell them you can’t do that. It’s terrible business.
