Alicia Elwood, APRN, RN, NP

Adult Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
NY
I am a dual-certified Psychiatric and Family Nurse Practitioner. I strive to help my patients heal by using a holistic approach to mental health. I utilize active listening when working with clients to help guide them to make the best informed decisions regarding their mental health treatment. I have 9 years of experience working as a nurse practitioner and have been specializing in psychiatry for 2+ years. I worked as a registered nurse for 8 years before obtaining my nurse practitioner. I am trained to diagnose and treat depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. My goal is to create a trusting and nurturing environment during sessions with my clients. I have always been fascinated by the field of mental health. During the COVID-19 pandemic, my family practice clients were waiting 6+ months to receive treatment for their mental health symptoms. I wanted to make a difference in people's lives and help my clients. I knew it was time to return to college and obtain my postmaster's certificate in psychiatry. I utilize motivational interviewing and CBT techniques to help clients actualize their goals. During the first session, we will spend about an hour getting to know you. We will talk about what you are currently experiencing, past experiences, and discuss diagnosis and treatment options.
