“Saw Melissa Maxwell for anxiety/depression evaluation. The LifeStance offices she works with are helpful and easy to coordinate with. The patient portal is comprehensive in terms of communication with the provider and making payments as well as making follow up appointments. And the video app needed is easy to navigate and overall the process from scheduling the appointment and further has been simple and clear and overall seamless. Melissa Maxwell herself has been easy to communicate with and had helped in matching me to a prescription and has made the process of getting started a very positive experience.”

Getting to know Melissa A Maxwell

I am a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. I received a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and a Master of Science in Nursing from Western Governors University, as well as a Master of Science in Nursing from Indiana Wesleyan University. I strive to create a collaborative relationship with my clients. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship begins with understanding my clients as they see themselves and the goals they have for themselves. This understanding allows for an individualized treatment plan to be created, which may include medication management, motivational interviewing, and brief supportive therapy to address my clients' needs. I believe that the best treatment outcomes are found in a multidisciplinary approach; therefore, I often encourage my patients to consider combined treatment with therapists. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I provide medication management for ages 15 and older. My specialty areas include addiction, anger management, anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), seasonal affective disorder (SAD), obsessive-compulsive disorder, and bipolar disorders. I look forward to working with you to meet your mental health goals.
