Getting to know Brooke Rischar

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I completed my BSN at Marian University and my MSN in Psychiatric-Mental Health at Indiana Wesleyan University. My background includes inpatient psychiatry across the lifespan, substance-use treatment, geriatric behavioral health, and outpatient telepsychiatry. I treat adults with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, sleep disturbance, and burnout, with particular focus on women’s mental health. My approach is collaborative and practical. Visits include a clear assessment, discussion of treatment options, and a plan you can follow. Medication is used when clinically appropriate, alongside brief, evidence-based supportive care. Services are provided via telehealth to patients in Indiana.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Appointments are structured so you have space to describe what is happening, then we focus on the symptoms affecting your day-to-day life. I explain findings in everyday language, review the benefits and tradeoffs of each option with you, and only move forward with what you are comfortable trying. Follow-up is used to track progress and change the plan if it is not helping. You should leave each visit knowing the next step.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

The first visit is simply a chance to understand what you’ve been carrying — your symptoms, sleep, past treatment, medications, and what you wish felt different. You don’t need the perfect explanation. Mental health is work I care about deeply. I believe there is always a way forward, even if it hasn’t shown up yet, and we can look for it together. I’m creative by nature and I think outside the box. I also love art. I believe everyone’s uniqueness has value, and I’m here to support you and help bring some hope back into the picture. I’ll share what I notice and talk through options with you so you know what we can try next. The aim is for you to leave feeling understood, not rushed, and a little less alone in it.
