Getting to know Lilian Elem
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) providing evidence-based psychiatric care to children, adolescents, and adults throughout Texas via secure telepsychiatry. Services include comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and psychotherapy for conditions such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and trauma-related conditions.
My approach is patient-centered, collaborative, and trauma-informed, with a focus on individualized treatment planning and continuity of care. Appointments can be conveniently scheduled through Headway to support timely access to quality mental health services across Texas.
What should a new client know about working with you?
As a new client, you can expect a supportive, respectful, and nonjudgmental environment where your concerns are taken seriously. I take time to understand your symptoms, goals, and life experiences so we can develop a personalized treatment plan that fits your needs.
I use an evidence-based, collaborative approach to care, which may include medication management, psychotherapy, or both. I value open communication, shared decision-making, and transparency throughout treatment. My goal is to help you feel informed, empowered, and supported as we work together toward improved mental wellness.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I start with a comprehensive evaluation to understand your symptoms, history, and goals. Together, we create an individualized treatment plan that may include medication management, therapy, or both. Follow-ups are flexible—either in person or via secure telepsychiatry across Texas—focusing on progress, adjustments, and collaborative care. My goal is to provide clear guidance, support, and a safe space where you feel heard and empowered throughout your mental health journey.
We look forward to seeing you at your upcoming appointment. To keep your visit as smooth as possible, please complete your new patient intake forms in advance. You’ll receive an email from Headway with a link to create your patient profile and fill out all required forms in the Headway portal before your appointment.
We reserve this appointment time just for you. Because last-minute cancellations and missed visits make it harder for other patients to access care, we ask that you let us know at least 24 hours in advance if you need to cancel or reschedule.
