Getting to know Thomas Koste

I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) at Integrative Psychiatry of America, and I’m passionate about providing compassionate, whole-person mental health care across Pennsylvania. I believe that you are more than a diagnosis, and my goal is to understand your experiences, challenges, and strengths so we can work together toward meaningful, lasting change. I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of mood and anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, seasonal affective disorder (SAD), oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), and sleep-related concerns. My approach combines evidence-based medication management with personalized support around lifestyle, nutrition, and overall wellness. I take a collaborative and supportive approach to care, creating a space where you can feel comfortable, heard, and respected. Together, we’ll develop a treatment plan that fits your unique needs and goals. Through secure telehealth visits, I aim to make mental health care accessible, convenient, and confidential. My hope is to help you find balance, build resilience, and feel more like yourself again.

What should a new client know about working with you?

When working with me, you can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and understood. I take the time to get to know you as a whole person—not just your symptoms—so we can create a treatment plan that truly fits your needs and goals. My approach is collaborative and practical. I will always explain my recommendations clearly, whether it involves medication, lifestyle changes, or other strategies, and I welcome your input every step of the way. I believe the best outcomes come from working together as a team. I also value consistency, communication, and follow-through. My goal is not just short-term relief, but helping you build long-term stability, resilience, and a better overall quality of life. Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable being open and honest—this is your space, and I’m here to support you without judgment.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My process starts with a thorough initial evaluation, where I take time to understand your concerns, history, lifestyle, and goals. This first visit is focused on getting a complete picture of you as a person, not just your symptoms. From there, we work together to create a personalized treatment plan. This may include medication management, along with practical strategies related to sleep, nutrition, stress, and daily routines. I always take the time to explain options clearly so you feel informed and comfortable with each step. Follow-up visits are focused on tracking your progress, making adjustments as needed, and supporting you through any challenges that come up. My goal is to find what works best for you and help you feel better in a sustainable way. Throughout the process, I prioritize open communication and collaboration so you feel supported, involved, and confident in your care.
