About
As a minority woman, I understand how it feels to face challenges and uphill battles alone, when no one else can relate.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 11 years of experience supporting individuals through challenges such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, sleep concerns, substance use, obsessive-compulsive patterns, mood disorders, and thought disorders. I have spent my career in behavioral health and truly enjoy helping clients navigate their emotional well-being with compassion, respect, and evidence-based care.
I earned my master’s degree in nursing from Eastern Kentucky University. My work is grounded in a holistic and person-centered approach that supports balance, resilience, and emotional stability. I integrate therapeutic strategies tailored to each person’s needs to help improve their overall quality of life without using abbreviations in this paragraph.
Life is a journey, and you do not have to walk it alone. With compassionate and collaborative care, I will help you build confidence, strengthen your inner resources, and work toward greater peace and emotional balance. Together, we can create a plan that supports lasting stability and meaningful healing.

As someone who has experience with loss, I’m committed to providing care that not only follows evidence-based practice but also honors the emotional realities my clients face.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 14 years of experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, trauma, mood concerns, and major life transitions. I help clients seeking greater emotional stability, a clearer understanding of their experiences, and guidance through overwhelming or isolating moments. My approach is compassionate, person-centered, and grounded in evidence-based care.
I earned my master’s degree in nursing from the University of Rochester. I blend evidence-based treatment with a warm, collaborative style and draw from person-centered care, trauma-informed practices, and cognitive behavioral strategies. I work with clients to create treatment plans that align with their needs and goals.
I know reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and you don’t have to navigate these challenges alone. My goal is to help you feel informed, supported, and empowered as we explore treatment options together. If you feel I may be a good fit for your journey, I welcome you to schedule an appointment and take the next step toward stability and well-being.

As a Psychiatric- Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, Natasha is able to incorporate psychotherapy into scheduled visits, and she aims to restore her patients' to a place of health and healing through collaboration on an individualized treatment plan of care.
"I became a nurse because I wanted to make a difference in the lives of others and give back to the community. I decided to become a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner because I felt that it would give me the opportunity to do more for the population that I serve and assist them with their goals of healing while helping to ease their suffering," says Natasha. "I appreciate the uniqueness of every individual I encounter and my style of practice ranges from prescribing up-to-date psychiatric medications or natural treatments to include but not limited to modifications to lifestyle, vitamins, supplements, exercise, nutrition, and stress management."

Psychiatry allows people struggling to manage mental conditions or disorders to get access to medications that will make daily functioning easier, as well as work through any mental factors that might be causing or worsening their condition. Though medications can’t cure mental disorders, medication can make symptoms more manageable, making the process of psychotherapeutic treatment easier and more effective. Psychiatric care can be available through in-person psychiatry and online psychiatry, depending on where you live and your own preferences. However, psychiatric providers at Thriveworks in Greensboro, NC specifically offer online psychiatry to their clients.
A therapist has an education specifically rooted in therapeutic practice, approaches, techniques, and treatment.
