Getting to know Sarah Alebesun

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 1 5 years of nursing-primarily critical care- I bring steady clinical judgement and genuine kindness to mental health care. My background in high acuity nursing gives me a strong foundation in medication safety, complex health needs, and supporting the whole person. Visits are unhurried, honest and collaborative. I listen, review your overall health, and explain your treatment options clearly so you feel confident in your plan. I treat adults across Texas for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorders, PTSD, and other mood disorders via telehealth, with select-in-person visits in Shenandoah (The Woodlands area). Book today to get started.

What should a new client know about working with you?

To ensure patient safety and maintain a high standard or care, I do not prescribe stimulants medications (such as Adderall, Vyvanse, or Ritalin). An in-person evaluation at my Shenandoah, TX office is required before prescribing any controlled substances (such as benzodiazepines), and periodic in-person follow-ups may be required. All appointments must be scheduled at least 48 hours in advance. To confirm your visit, new patients must complete intake paperwork and add a valid insurance card and payment method on file within 24 hours of booking (and no later than 24 hours before the appointment). Cancellations or reschedules made with less that 24 hours' notice before the visits, as well as missed appointments (no-shows), are subject to a $100 fee.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Your first visit is a relaxed, 60-minute conversation where we focus on getting to know you and what brought you in. We will review your current symptoms, mental health, overall health. From there, we will walk through safe, practical treatment options together. Whether that involves starting a medication, adjusting a recommending therapy alongside treatment, you will always have time to ask questions and share what feels comfortable for you. Follow-up visits typically last 20 to 30 minutes. During these sessions, we check on how you are feeling, monitor your response to treatment, and make collaborative adjustments as needed.
