Heather Brock, PMHNP-BC

I respect and value your experiences and thoughts.

I am a board certified psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and adult nurse practitioner (ANP-BC.) I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, some individual therapy when appropriate to the visit, and consultation.

My intent is to provide excellent, thorough, evidence based care. This often includes offering medication management.  I will support you in looking into the effects of community connection, nutrition, restorative sleep, substance use, and movement.  I provide psychotherapy as appropriate to the visit. For more in depth or frequent therapy, I refer to trusted colleagues.

My areas of interest include depression (including difficult to treat depression), bipolar disorder, PTSD, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and other neurodiverse conditions, long term effects of traumatic brain injury, co-occurring substance use disorders, functional disorders, and the management of psychiatric symptoms in people who are living with other chronic illness. 

My patient population is 18 years or older.  My practice is open and affirming to people of all backgrounds, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, or any other characteristic that makes you who you are.

My work time is balanced by reading mysteries and science fiction, spending time with my partner and our dogs, yoga, and providing crisis & harm reduction services at large art/music events.

My very small and calm dog, Hennessy, is often present at the office. If you prefer a dog free environment, please just let us know at least one business day prior as your needs are my highest priority.  He is always happy to spend a day with his dog friends!
