Welcome to Nautilus Mental Health
Amanda Mitchell, DNP, APRN, PMHNP-BC
Welcome to Nautilus Mental Health! I’m Amanda Mitchell, a Doctorally-prepared Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and the founder of NMH.
Life can present challenges that sometimes feel overwhelming, and during those times, it’s normal to need extra support to navigate through. At Nautilus Mental Health, we offer a compassionate space where we work closely with you to listen, understand, and guide you through challenging mental health symptoms. While medication alone may not solve everything, when paired with psychotherapy, it can become a powerful tool to help you on your path to healing.
As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide evidence-based psychiatric medication management combined with supportive psychotherapy. I treat a wide range of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, and PTSD, and work with patients ages 18 & up. I have a passion for helping individuals who are struggling to cope with change and life transitions, supporting them in their recovery and growth through a combination of psychiatric medications and therapy. I am a trauma-informed provider, and I also enjoy working with folks who are neurodivergent.
In our first session, we’ll collaborate to understand the root causes of your symptoms and develop a plan to help you regain control and improve your overall well-being. I’m here to support you on your journey to mental wellness. Navigating this process alone can be difficult, but together we can make meaningful progress toward your goals.
