Getting to know Runako Richardson

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with advanced training from Uiveristy of Texas at Arlington, dedicated to supporting children, teens, and young adults through compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care. I'm experienced in treating various psychiatric and mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar, other mood disorders, OCD, PTSD, ADHD and sleep problems. I integrate medication management with psychoeducation and family collaboration to create care plans that feel empowering — not overwhelming. Runako does not not prescribe controlled substances with Emora Health, including stimulants for ADHD, although she will prescribe safe alternatives when appropriate. If these are needed, the team can help you find a trusted provider who is able to prescribe them.

Ms. Richardson PMHNP, was very understanding and was able to educate me on the medication’s that I was already taking and help me pick out a different one that better suited my goals.
My son found her very easy to talk to.
Not really sure I fully agree with the diagnosis, considering I’m her parent and have watched her and live with her for nine years. But she did offer some resources for a second opinion, which I appreciate.
