Nakisha Patton

I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of combined psychiatric, behavioral health, and nursing experience, trained to deliver patient-centered, culturally sensitive care in both onsite and virtual settings. I excel at psychiatric evaluations, medication management, crisis intervention, risk assessment, and developing treatment plans while maintaining timely, HIPAA-compliant EMR documentation.

I have recent experience providing telepsychiatry and correctional mental health services, coordinating interdisciplinary care, and improving therapeutic engagement and outcomes through compassionate, evidence-based approaches. I am adept at working independently in remote workflows and collaborating with clinical leadership, billing, and compliance teams to ensure quality, efficient care.
