Meet Our Providers

Alexandra Collins, APRN, PMHNP-BC

 As a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner dedicated to providing thoughtful, individualized care. I believe healing begins with truly understanding each person’s unique story, values, and experiences. My approach is collaborative and patient-centered, creating a safe, supportive space where individuals can explore who they are, gain insight into their challenges, and build resilience. I work alongside patients to navigate mental health concerns with empathy and respect, integrating evidence-based treatment with a holistic perspective. Whether addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, or other conditions, my goal is to empower each person to move toward greater clarity, balance, and well-being—at their own pace and on their own terms.

   As a Doctor of Nursing Practice, Primary Care and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 25 years of experience in healthcare with a focus on physical and mental healthcare for adolescents, adults, and older adults ages 10 and up. With expertise in bipolar disorder, depression, panic disorder and anxiety, I work closely with patients to make sure they are heard and felt cared for during each interaction. Through a combination of medication management and psychotherapy, I work with each individual to develop a personalized treatment plan meeting your individual needs and goals. I strive to dedicate myself to each patient with a non-judgemental, compassionate and empathetic approach to meet each individual right where they are every time.
