Navigate life's challenges, achieve emotional well-being, and rediscover balance in your life.
What sets us apart?
At Stewart Psychiatry your care is tailored to fit your needs by working closely with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific concerns, preferences, and goals, ensuring a holistic and effective approach.
-
Identifying psychiatric needs involves thoroughly assessing an individual’s mental health symptoms, history, and overall well-being to determine the most appropriate course of treatment. This process includes understanding emotional, psychological, and behavioral challenges, while considering any underlying factors that may be contributing to the condition. By working closely with you, we can create a tailored plan that addresses specific needs, supports mental health goals, and helps achieve long-term well-being.
-
An integrative psychiatric appointment combines traditional psychiatric care with complementary approaches to support overall mental health and well-being. In these sessions, I focus on addressing both the mind and body, considering lifestyle factors, nutrition, and stress management alongside medication and therapy. This holistic approach ensures that treatment is personalized, combining the best of conventional and alternative methods to promote healing, balance, and long-term mental health.
-
Personalized psychiatric appointments are tailored to meet the unique needs of each patient, ensuring they receive the time and attention necessary to address their mental health concerns. During these sessions, I take a collaborative approach, discussing treatment options, answering questions, and providing resources to support your journey. My goal is to create a comfortable, non-judgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to make informed decisions about your care.
Services offered at Stewart Psychiatry
Psychiatric Evaluations
A psychiatric diagnostic evaluation is a comprehensive assessment conducted by a mental health professional to understand a person's mental health symptoms, history, and current functioning. This evaluation helps in diagnosing mental health conditions and creating an appropriate treatment plan tailored to the individual's needs.
Medication Management
Psychiatric medication management involves the careful prescription, monitoring, and adjustment of medications to treat mental health conditions such as mood disorders, ADHD, and OCD among others. The goal is to optimize treatment effectiveness, minimize side effects, and ensure the patient’s mental well-being through ongoing evaluation and support.
Talk Therapy
Therapy with a psychiatric nurse practitioner involves a collaborative approach to addressing mental health concerns through various therapeutic techniques, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or interpersonal therapy (IPT). I will work with you to explore emotions, develop coping strategies, and improve mental well-being, often in conjunction with medication management.
ESA Letters
An emotional support animal (ESA) is a pet that provides comfort and support to individuals experiencing emotional or psychological challenges, such as anxiety, depression, or PTSD. Unlike service animals, ESAs do not undergo specialized training, but their presence can help alleviate symptoms and provide emotional stability. The key difference is that ESAs are prescribed by a licensed mental health professional as part of a treatment plan, and they can offer companionship, reduce stress, and enhance well-being for those in need.
Tele-health appointments
Tele-health appointments are virtual healthcare sessions that allow patients to consult with medical professionals remotely, using video calls, phone calls, or secure messaging platforms. These appointments offer convenience and flexibility, enabling patients to receive care from the comfort of their own home. Tele-health is particularly useful for routine check-ups, mental health therapy, follow-up visits, and managing chronic conditions, making healthcare more accessible and efficient, especially for those with mobility issues or living in remote areas.

Shannon Stewart, DNP, PMHNP-BC
Board Certified Medication Provider
I am a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a Doctorate in Nursing Practice. My passion lies in working with individuals to improve their mental health, with a particular focus on women’s health, including postpartum depression, anxiety, and OCD. I also have a strong interest in helping those reduce their use of controlled substances, such as alcohol, benzodiazepines, and cannabis. Additionally, I provide basic medication management for conditions including depression, ADHD, PTSD, and bipolar disorder. I strive to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment where patients feel empowered to make informed decisions about their care and treatment options.
Patient Populations
Including those already mentioned I also see those facing challenges related to trauma, PTSD, addiction, and substance use disorders often benefit from psychiatric care. Additionally, people dealing with life transitions, stress, relationship issues, or difficulties managing chronic health conditions requiring support to improve emotional well-being and coping strategies. Psychiatric help is also essential for transgender individuals navigating gender identity, victims of abuse coping with trauma, people experiencing isolation or social disconnection, and individuals in underserved communities who may face barriers to quality mental health care.
Target Specific Issues
Stewart Psychiatry focuses on a collaborative, patient-centered model, ensuring that each person receives the time, attention, and support they need to explore treatment options, ask questions, and make informed decisions about their care. We also prioritize offering helpful resources, such as articles, videos, and books, to support your journey. Whether you're seeking help for anxiety, depression, ADHD, or other mental health concerns, we are committed to helping you achieve a healthier, more fulfilling life.
