Getting to know Sharon Ford
Hello, I'm Sharon Ford, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC, I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 25 years of nursing experience, including 8 years specializing in mental health. I provide compassionate, evidence-based telehealth care for adolescents and adults, offering medication management, supportive therapy, and psychoeducation. I treat anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related disorders, OCD, insomnia, and other mental health concerns. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where patients feel heard, understood, and empowered. Treatment is individualized and tailored to each person's unique needs.
For those who desire it, I offer a faith-based approach that integrates biblical principles with evidence-based psychiatric care. As a co-founder of Mindful Matters, LLC, I am committed to helping patients achieve lasting emotional wellness and an improved quality of life.
My practice does **not** prescribe benzodiazepines or stimulant medications . If you are seeking these medications, I may not be the best fit for your care. If you are looking for evaluation and treatment of other mental health conditions, including medication management with non-controlled medications, I would be happy to discuss your treatment options.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider's self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan's benefits.
