Emily Smith, APRN, RN, NP

Adult Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
WA
I am a dedicated psychiatry professional committed to providing compassionate, patient-centered care. With years of experience supporting individuals facing mental health challenges, I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where patients feel heard and empowered. My approach combines empathy, evidence-based practices, and individualized care to help each person on their journey toward healing and well-being. I have experience in the acute and chronic management of a full range of psychiatric disorders, including mood disorders, personality disorders, substance use disorders, psychotic disorders, sleep-wake disorders, anxiety disorders, and eating disorders. I want to create and foster a patient-provider relationship that allows for open communication, trust, and growth. I have always worked in mental healthcare in some capacity. However, about five years ago, I recognized a significant need for greater access to mental health services and knew I had to do my part to help my community. I live in a city in the U.S. that is experiencing one of the worst substance use crises, where patients often have to wait three to five months for an appointment. This delay creates an endless cycle of hospitalizations and decompensation as they wait for life-saving mental health care. Witnessing this struggle ultimately led me to become a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. My goal is to empower my patients and support them in setting goals, motivating change, and ultimately achieving the goals they strive for. During a first visit, you can expect to receive a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation that will incorporate a psychodynamic model approach to treatment. You will be able to share your hopes and goals for treatment and be an active part of deciding what your treatment plan looks like for you.
