Meet Robye Ballard, APN

Psychiatry & Nurse Practitioner

Bio


Welcome! My name is Robye Ballard and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (MSN, PMHNP-BC). I have an extensive work history with training and experience in multiple roles that have varied from crisis counselor to behavior analyst to psychiatric nurse and nurse practitioner over the last 20 years. I treat patients across the lifespan from age 6 through 65+ and am now accepting new patients. I provide assessment and treatment for a multitude of psychiatric disorders including but not limited to anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, mood disorders, and postpartum difficulties. 

My approach to psychiatry is integrative in nature. This means that I use a multifaceted approach that incorporates all of the standard approaches of traditional mental health treatment such as psychotherapy and medications as well as complimentary practices such as lifestyle modifications and the use of nutrition and supplements. This allows me to treat patients as a whole, including their minds, body, and spirit. This also provides the opportunity to develop patient-centered, personalized care that compliments each patient's belief system. My goal is always to treat patients as individuals and not as a case from a textbook or research study. 

You can rest assured that I am dedicated to providing safe and competent care in a relaxed judgement-free atmosphere where your questions and concerns can be discussed freely. I look forward to partnering with you to help provide you with the strategies and tools you need to achieve the positive mental health outcomes and emotional well-being that you deserve.
