Christie Vardhami, APRN, PMHNP-BC

As a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner I have had diverse experience working with adults in the inpatient psychiatric unit, as a provider working in a outpatient community mental health center with co-occurring disorders, and treating individuals at a local mental health authority with severe and persistent mental illness. My philosophy for treatment is guided by meeting the individual where they are at. I value fostering a strong therapeutic relationship and individualizing the treatment plan that is around your specific needs and goals. I specialize in holistic care to adults aged 18 and older in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, insomnia, substance use disorders, bipolar disorder, and psychosis. My approach in my practice is to provide compassionate and empathetic care in a safe and nonjudgemental space where one feels supported and empowered. I utilize a combination of medication management and supportive therapy to help the individual get relief from their mental health symptoms that are negatively impacting their life and functioning while also providing psycho-education and pharmacogenomic testing. I strive in providing high quality care that involves staying current with evidence based research to guide treatment and collaborating with an individuals health care providers when necessary. I look forward to working together towards your journey in mental health wellness.
