Hi, I’m Dr. B!
Bethany Jensen | DNP, PMHNP-BC | she/her/hers
I am a Doctor of Nursing Practice, Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, who has experience working in county-based, residential, secure inpatient, and rural psychiatric settings. My clinical approach is egalitarian; collaborating with patients and their loved ones to thoroughly provide education on mental health options for patients to make decisions that are subjectively best for their healing, wholeness, and longitudinal health.
As a DNP, PMHNP-BC I offer therapy in tandem with medication management. As a rule of thumb, I first rule out any possible concurrent medical issues that may be inducing mental health symptoms, and closely collaborate with your medical team. My priority is to remain plumb-line with current evidence-based practice and offer these insights to patients.
If you or your child are interested in exploring options for mental health issues, please reach out! To note, I am currently unable to meet with folks who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or struggling with disordered eating. Reach out today to make an appointment!
