“Kristina was so helpful in understanding the full picture of my history, current situation, and future goals. She was thoughtful in her analysis of what might be important to me and what I should consider when choosing medication options. She was easy to relate to on a personal level while staying professional and on topic! I look forward to maintaining a relationship with her!”

“Great experience. She listened to my experiences and offered her insights and experience while still allowing me to feel a sense of control over my journey towards better functioning. Went above and beyond helping me figure insurance coverage for my medication. ”

Getting to know Kristina Jacobsen
I am Dr. Kristina Jacobsen, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree from Chaminade University of Honolulu. My journey in nursing began with a deep desire to serve others, and I was fortunate to be able to do so while living and working in the rural communities of Hawai‘i. These early experiences grounded me in the importance of culturally sensitive, community-based care and instilled in me a profound respect for the resilience of individuals and families navigating mental health challenges.
My clinical focus is in psychiatry and addiction medicine, areas I chose because I believe in the fundamental worth of every individual, regardless of their background, diagnosis, or life circumstances. Mental health is health, and I am committed to providing comprehensive, compassionate, and non-judgmental care to all of my patients.
Over the years, I have seen firsthand how stigma, trauma, and systemic barriers can stand in the way of healing. My role, as I see it, is not just to treat symptoms, but to walk alongside my patients as a partner in their journey toward wellness. I strive to create a therapeutic space where people feel safe, heard, and empowered to take ownership of their mental health.
As a lifelong learner and advocate for holistic, person-centered care, I continue to pursue ongoing education and collaboration with other professionals in the field. My goal is to help bridge the gap between physical and mental health and to advocate for accessible, equitable mental healthcare in all communities.
Everyone deserves to be seen, understood, and supported, and I consider it an honor to be a part of that process.
What should a new client know about working with you?
As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, my goal is to support you on your journey to better mental health with both clinical knowledge and genuine care. I aim to create a space where you feel safe, respected, and heard—without judgment.
I take a personalized approach to treatment, combining evidence-based practices with an understanding of your unique needs and life experiences. Whether we're discussing medication, therapy, or a combination of both, I believe in working together to find what works best for you.
Your goals and values matter, and I’m here to help you move toward healing at your own pace—with empathy, honesty, and patience every step of the way.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I work closely with each client to complete a thorough assessment, so we can identify the issues that are causing the most stress or disruption in their life. From there, we create a treatment plan that’s focused, practical, and tailored to what matters most to them.
In addition to providing medication management when appropriate, I also integrate therapeutic approaches to support lasting progress. My goal is to build a strong, supportive relationship where clients feel comfortable and truly cared for, because long-term positive outcomes start with trust and collaboration.

Fantastic. Completely ideal psych intake. She listened to me. She was neither pushy about meds nor too conservative about them. She explained everything so well. I feel well-taken care of. Really appreciate it. Excited to work with her.

Great organization and even better people.
I initially reached out for a friend who urgently needed withdrawal management / MAT-MAR, and they understood the urgency and made it happen — honestly, to an extent that didn’t seem possible. I connected with Kristina Jacobsen as the prescriber, and saying she went above and beyond would be an understatement. She showed up as a human being, not just a medical professional. She was knowledgeable, responsive, empathetic, and efficient. Her recommendations made sense, and the timeline was much faster than expected.
After seeing how painless and efficient the process was for my friend, when it came time to adjust my own medications, there was only one organization I contacted. My experience was identical — same great care and timelines.
In a world full of “pain in the butt to get help with psych meds,” Hybrid Counseling feels like the cheat code. I 100% would recommend them to friends and family.

She did an amazing job of listening to the issues that I was dealing with, supplied a thorough assessment of the available treatments and brought more to the table than what I had asked for.
