Getting to know Tanya Gillan
Tanya Gillan, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and registered nurse at Elevate Wellness Group. With over a decade of experience in acute and critical care settings. Her background caring for medically complex and critically ill patients has shaped a comprehensive, safety-focused, and compassionate approach to her practice, with a strong understanding of how mental health directly impacts medical outcomes and overall quality of life.
Her passion for mental health developed through years of bedside nursing, where she consistently observed the significant role psychiatric conditions played in patients’ recovery, engagement in care, and long-term functioning. These experiences reinforced her belief that mental health care is a foundational component of overall health, not a secondary consideration.
She began her academic journey at the University of Windsor, earning an associate degree in psychology, and later completed a business degree at Nipissing University in North Bay, Ontario. She went on to establish and operate a personal training and wellness business in Hawaii, where she developed a holistic understanding of health and wellness. Motivated to expand her impact, Tanya pursued nursing education at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Alberta, and entered inpatient acute care practice.
After eight years of inpatient nursing, Tanya returned to graduate school to pursue a Master of Science in Nursing with a specialization in Psychiatric Mental Health—a decision that was both professionally and personally meaningful, allowing her to more fully address the mental health needs she encountered throughout her career.
In her current practice, Tanya provides comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and evidence-based medication management for children, adolescents, and adults. She is deeply committed to individualized, patient-centered care and creates a supportive, non-judgmental environment where patients feel heard and respected.
What should a new client know about working with you?
When you meet with Tanya, you can expect compassionate, personalized care that focuses on you as a whole person—not just your symptoms. She understands that mental health affects every aspect of life, including your physical health, relationships, school, work, and overall well-being. Whether you're seeking care for yourself or your child, Tanya takes the time to understand your concerns, answer your questions, and ensure you feel comfortable throughout the process.
Tanya believes that the best outcomes are achieved through collaboration. She partners with patients and families to develop individualized treatment plans that reflect each person's goals, values, and unique circumstances. Her approach combines evidence-based psychiatric care with a holistic understanding of health, empowering patients to make informed decisions and actively participate in their treatment.
Her goal is to help every patient build resilience, improve daily functioning, and achieve lasting mental wellness in a supportive, respectful, and judgment-free environment.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Your first appointment with Tanya begins with a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, where she takes the time to understand your symptoms, medical history, lifestyle, and personal goals. She also explores how physical health, life experiences, and environmental factors may be influencing your mental well-being to develop a complete picture of your needs.
Once an accurate diagnosis is established, Tanya works collaboratively with you—or with parents and caregivers when treating children and adolescents—to develop a personalized treatment plan. She carefully explains your diagnosis, discusses treatment options, and provides evidence-based medication management when appropriate, ensuring you understand every step of your care.
Follow-up appointments focus on monitoring your progress, evaluating how treatment is working, and making adjustments as needed. Tanya is committed to building long-term therapeutic relationships that help patients and families achieve greater stability, resilience, and an improved quality of life.
