Kirsten Book, PMHNP
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner
Hi! My name is Kirsten Book, and I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner and woman in recovery. I know what it is like to struggle, and I offer my hand to guide you along the path to healing.
My mission is to support, empathize, and empower my patients through the use of medication management, psychotherapy, and a holistic and integrative treatment approach.
I have over 12 years of healthcare experience in the treatment of children ages 8+, adolescents, and adults struggling with Eating Disorders, Anxiety, Depression, Substance Use and Women’s Health
My personal experience allows me to approach my patients with empathy, compassion, and humility, using not only medications and therapy, but also instilling hope, which I believe is just as essential as any treatment.
I offer a safe place where you are respected, validated, and celebrated for the resilient soul that you are
There is hope here for you
My best,
Kirsten
