More about Vanessa Richardson, APRN, RN, NP
Vanessa Richardson, DNP, PMHNP-BC, AGNP-C, is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of nursing experience and extensive experience in outpatient psychiatry, telehealth, ADHD evaluations, substance use disorders, and dual diagnosis treatment across children, adolescents, adults, and older adults.
She specializes in ADHD, executive functioning concerns, anxiety, depression, trauma-related disorders, mood disorders, and substance use disorders, including alcohol, opioid, stimulant, cannabis, and polysubstance use.
Care is collaborative, individualized, evidence-based, and focused on helping clients better understand symptoms, improve daily functioning, and achieve long-term stability and wellness.
A structured and comprehensive diagnostic process is used when evaluating ADHD and related behavioral health concerns. Evaluations may include clinical interviews, collateral information, rating scales, and optional virtual behavioral health assessments completed remotely through Pearson. Common assessments may include Conners 4, ASRS, BASC-3, Brown Executive Function Scales, Vineland-3, Vanderbilt Scales, and other clinically appropriate tools based on age and presenting concerns. These at-home assessments are often highly recommended to support diagnostic clarity and individualized treatment planning.
There is a strong focus on substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions, offering psychiatric evaluations, medication management, relapse prevention support, recovery-focused treatment planning, and coordination with therapists, PCPs, and treatment programs when appropriate.
Same-day appointments are available, along with some weekends. Virtual statewide appointments in Pennsylvania and Delaware.
