Dana Schmitz is a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience in mental health care. She believes that effective treatment begins with feeling genuinely heard and understood, and she strives to create a space that is warm, collaborative, and never rushed.
Dana’s background includes extensive work in community and outpatient mental health settings, where she has supported adults with a wide range of concerns. She has particular interest in working with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, and life transitions, while remaining comfortable and experienced in treating diverse and complex mental health needs.
Her approach blends evidence-based medication management with thoughtful conversation, education, and shared decision-making. Dana values helping patients feel informed and empowered, and she prioritizes treatment plans that are practical, individualized, and aligned with each person’s goals.
Above all, Dana considers it a privilege to walk alongside people during vulnerable moments in their lives. She understands that seeking psychiatric care can feel overwhelming, and she is committed to offering steady, compassionate support as patients work toward improved well-being.
