Joyce Brunson, NP, APRN

Adult Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
OH
Hi, I’m Dr. Joyce Brunson, DNP, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner dedicated to helping adults feel more like themselves again. I provide thoughtful, individualized psychiatric care for concerns including anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, mood disorders, and sleep difficulties. I believe mental health treatment should be collaborative—not one-size-fits-all. My goal is to understand what you’re experiencing, what may be contributing to it, and what you want your life to look like moving forward. My approach combines evidence-based medication management with a compassionate, judgment-free environment. I take time to listen, explain treatment options clearly, and work with you to develop a plan that fits your goals, preferences, and everyday life. Whether you’re seeking care for the first time, struggling with symptoms that have returned, or feel that your current treatment is no longer working, you deserve to feel heard and supported. You don’t have to figure it all out before reaching out. We can start where you are and work forward together.
