Getting to know Heather Dickson

As both an acute care and psychiatric nurse practitioner with over two decades of experience, I bring a distinctive perspective to mental healthcare that bridges the traditional divide between physical and psychological medicine. My professional journey has equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of how physical and mental health are inextricably linked, enabling me to offer a truly holistic approach to mental healthcare. When evaluating patients, I consider not only their psychological presentation but also their complete physiological status, medication interactions, and systemic health factors that might affect their mental state. This comprehensive methodology often uncovers underlying medical conditions that might otherwise go unnoticed in a traditional psychiatric setting. My integrated approach has proven particularly effective in complex cases where mental and physical health concerns intersect. Whether managing a patient with treatment-resistant depression complicated by chronic pain, or addressing anxiety stemming from a recent medical diagnosis, I draw upon my extensive experience in both fields to develop thorough, personalized treatment plans that acknowledge and address the full spectrum of patient needs. Furthermore, my acute care background enhances my ability to collaborate effectively with other healthcare providers, bridging communication gaps that often exist between medical and psychiatric care teams. This interdisciplinary approach ensures that my patients receive coordinated, comprehensive care that addresses both their mental and physical health needs.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
