Melveena Johnson-Bolden, PMHNP

Melveena Johnson-Bolden, PMHNP

Family Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
GA
My name is Melveena Johnson Bolden and I am Board Certified Advanced Practice Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. My goal with my patients is to meet their needs in a collaborative, comfortable, and conscientious manner, focusing on the whole patient and not the hole in the patient. My approach to mental healthcare is a little eclectic because each person requires something unique. I utilize the Humanistic approach because it focuses on person-centered care, which emphasizes empathy to facilitate personal growth. Biological psychology is also incorporated because in order to choose and ultimately prescribe the correct medication, genetics, and biochemical processes must be assessed to understand the relationship with an individual's behavior. I typically treat, depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, oppositional defiant disorder, disruptive mood disorder, and PTSD. Over the years I have worked with shy children having increased anxiety in grade school, to the seasoned adults feeling lonely and despair because their friends are passing on and they feel as if their life is over. I can empathize and find the correct course of treatment for vastly different scenarios and diagnoses. I am an inclusive practitioner who welcomes clients from all backgrounds and walks of life who are ready to take the next step toward bettering themselves. I partner with all of my patients. While I give options for treatments and the rationale behind them, I do not overwhelm my patients. I gently guide them toward the best course of treatment that will fit their lifestyle in their particular season of life. I am support-oriented, relationship-oriented, and results-oriented. I have been a nurse for over 25 years. During my matriculation throughout the hospital systems, many of my patients could not follow through on their medical health because their mental health was suffering.
