Michele Castro, APRN

Adult Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
VA
I’m Michele Castro, a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 16 years of experience as a registered nurse before becoming a PMHNP. I provide compassionate, culturally responsive mental health care to adolescents and adults ages 10 and older. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, insomnia, mood changes, stress, anger, and other emotional or behavioral concerns. I provide both therapy and medication management, allowing us to address your concerns through meaningful conversation while also considering medication when appropriate. My approach is warm, collaborative, and centered on the whole person—not just a diagnosis. I take time to listen, understand what is happening in your everyday life, and explain your treatment options in clear, practical language. Care may also include lifestyle strategies and discussion of evidence-informed supplements when appropriate. I understand that reaching out for mental health care can feel intimidating. My goal is to create a comfortable, judgment-free space where you feel heard, respected, and involved in every decision. Together, we will develop a personalized treatment plan that reflects your symptoms, preferences, values, and goals so you can begin getting your power back.
