Michael West, PMHNP

Michael West, PMHNP

Family Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
IA
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than a decade of nursing and psychiatric experience. I trained at UAMS and hold national board certification through ANCC. My background includes community mental health, veterans, telepsychiatry, and outpatient practice. I take an evidence-based approach that fits everyday life. I believe psychiatric care begins with listening. I treat patients with respect, without judgment, and as active participants in care. I understand symptoms, goals, and challenges. I value open communication and individualized plans that consider evidence, preferences, previous treatment, lifestyle, and practical needs. I create a warm, supportive environment where care is compassionate and practical. I begin with an assessment of concerns, history, medications, previous treatment, and goals. I look beyond symptoms to understand context and daily functioning. I work collaboratively to develop an individualized plan, and when medication is appropriate, I consider benefits, risks, alternatives, past experiences, and preferences. I use evidence-based psychotherapy and behavioral strategies when appropriate, including CBT, CBT-I, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, and Motivational Interviewing. I follow patients over time, monitor response and side effects, and adjust treatment as needed.
