I’m Jennifer Griffith. I have a Doctorate of Nursing Practice from the University of Iowa and 10 years of experience as a psychiatric nurse practitioner. My professional journey has also involved five years in social services and six years working as a nurse in Neurology/Neurosurgery. My Approach: I started this practice because I believe psychiatric care can be so much more than the current medical model provides patients. You are not just a diagnosis. You are a unique individual whose mental, physical, and social health all impact your overall well-being. I am dedicated to providing a supportive environment where you can find comfort and healing. We can work together to help you find balance and mental wellness in your daily life!
