My name is Davette Patterson-Yount and as a PMHNP, I bring 20 years of nursing experience and 16 years of experience in the mental health field. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of caring for individuals across the lifespan, from children and adolescents to adults and older adults. I have experience treating a wide range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, schizophrenia, and psychotic disorders.

My approach to care is collaborative and holistic. My goal is to create an environment where people can come as they are.

My goal is for each person to feel heard, respected, and supported as we work together toward greater stability, wellness, and overall quality of life.

I'm Jeanmarie Roberts, psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner and doctor of behavioral health. I work with many different types of clients — depression, anxiety, PTSD, among others — and the common denominator seems to be wanting to be back to the way they used to be, to be "normal." 

I am big on educating my clients to be informed consumers. Knowledge is power! I also come with a great deal of empathy and understanding of what someone is going through. I meet folks wherever they happen to be at that moment. 

My goal is to help people live their best lives, and working with my clients is truly an honor. So I would like to invite you to schedule an appointment with me, and we will walk your journey together.
