Whether you are considering medication for the first time or seeking a second opinion, my approach is collaborative and evidence-based. I treat a variety of conditions, including depression, anxiety, attention deficit, eating disorders, post-traumatic stress, and postpartum mood disorders. Patients often describe my approach as attentive, supportive, and thorough. My passions for mental health advocacy, research and clinical work are inspired by my respect for the diversity of human experience and our capacity for profound growth and healing.
PLEASE NOTE: Online appointment request does not guarantee an appointment. I will email you first.
I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner. My philosophy is an integrative approach in treating the whole person -- including the biological, psychological, social, cultural, and spiritual factors. I emphasize education so you feel empowered and understand why medication may be necessary, what the medication is, and why you are taking it. While medications are an important part of treatment, they are often times not the long-term solution. We can carefully weigh the potential benefits and risks to find the best option for you.
My primary goal is to make sure that I provide the best care to my patients. In some cases, the limitations of outpatient treatment do not allow the ability to provide the level of care that I think you deserve. I can provide feedback, temporary services, and assistance with referral options.
“I am deeply grateful to Michael for his unwavering support during my mental health and alcohol recovery journey. From the start, he has been compassionate and genuinely invested in my well-being. His encouraging approach has made a significant impact on my life. With his professional team, Michael provided the guidance I needed to overcome my challenges with substance use and mental health. If you or someone you know is facing a similar struggle, I highly recommend Michael and his team.”
“Bridgitte is wonderful and has been from the beginning of when we started our zoom call sessions. She is so kind and caring. She has helped me feel better about issues that were going on my life.”
I went into psychiatry to improve access to considerate, kind, and evidence-based mental healthcare. Through my work in community health centers I have partnered with hundreds of patients to be empowered and informed consumers of healthcare. In those settings, I have worked with people from all walks of life; I have had training in providing care to gender diverse populations, people with addictions, pregnant and nursing people, as well as caring for severe mental illness. I continually seek new information to be sure my patients receive appropriate care in a timely manner.
Although the care I provide is rooted in current medical knowledge, my relationship to patients is informed by the nursing model. This emphasizes caring for the whole person rather than a narrow “problem” focus. I seek to understand my patients’ lives in order to develop treatment plans that realistically align with their goals.
Through active listening and thoughtful questioning, I am able to deliver high-quality care that utilizes the most recent advancements in medicine. I'm especially interested in Men's Health issues and I have unique blend of clinical knowledge and I am compassionate. I have a strong ability to connect with my patients , understand their needs, and able to provide the support they need improve their mental health.
“Linton is exceptional. He truly stands out in his field. From my very first appointment, I found him to be incredibly easy to talk to, creating a comfortable atmosphere that encourages open communication. He takes the time to listen to my concerns and ensures that all of my needs are met with the utmost care. His professionalism shines through in every interaction, making me feel confident in his expertise. I highly recommend Linton.”
