Bryce Thacker, PMHNP

I have practiced as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner since 2016 and as a Family Nurse Practitioner since 2000, providing comprehensive care across the lifespan. I earned both my Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner degrees from the University of Nebraska Medical Center and am board-certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center. I also serve as a professor in Clarkson College’s Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Program.

I believe in treating the whole person, not just a diagnosis. I consider physical and emotional health, family, stressors, and environment when developing care. I use evidence-based practices while tailoring treatment to each patient’s unique needs. I strive to provide safe, respectful, thorough care and treat every patient with the compassion, honesty, and dignity I would want for my own family.

I begin by building rapport and creating a safe environment for open communication. I complete a comprehensive assessment, then work collaboratively with patients to establish realistic goals. Together, we develop an individualized, evidence-based plan that may include medication management and cognitive behavioral therapy. I provide education, monitor progress, adjust treatment as needed, and support long-term wellness through ongoing, compassionate care.

I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice from the Medical University of South Carolina and completed training as a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner at the University of Cincinnati.

I use a holistic treatment approach that may include medication management and psychotherapy, while incorporating evidence-based practices to provide quality care. I value helping each patient feel heard and understood, creating a supportive environment where open and honest communication can foster growth.

I begin by actively listening to understand your concerns and treatment goals, synthesizing the information shared during the initial session to develop an individualized plan. Through our therapeutic alliance, we establish mutually agreed-upon goals and use periodic check-ins to monitor progress and adjust the treatment plan as needed.

My education in advanced psychiatric nursing and clinical psychology gives me a broad perspective on the biological, psychological, social, and environmental factors that affect mental health.

I believe effective psychiatric care begins with listening to the person, not simply treating a diagnosis. I provide thorough, compassionate, straightforward care and value collaboration, education, and open communication. I tailor treatment to your history, needs, previous treatment experiences, and goals, while helping you understand the benefits, risks, and alternatives of your options.

I begin with a comprehensive assessment of your symptoms, history, medications, medical and psychosocial factors, and goals.

I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental, and supportive setting where patients feel comfortable being open and honest. I believe effective treatment starts with listening to each patient’s concerns, goals, history, and circumstances rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. I value open communication, collaboration, and respect, with realistic, individualized goals that support mental health and quality of life.

I begin with a comprehensive evaluation of current concerns, psychiatric and medical history, medications, lifestyle, and goals.

I believe in fostering a strong therapeutic alliance and embrace working with patients from diverse backgrounds, recognizing and respecting each person’s unique experiences and perspectives.

At the first visit, I will take a thorough history of symptoms and concerns and explore your unique history to develop a treatment plan. Plans are tailored to each individual and developed collaboratively. Subsequent visits explore progress, assess nonpharmacological therapeutic approaches, and adjust the plan as needed.

My nursing career began in 1998 after earning my Associate Degree in Nursing from Palm Beach Community College.

I view medication as a tool to support quality of life, not a complete solution.

I begin with a thorough medical, family, and psychiatric history, then collaborate with you to identify what matters most to address first. Together, we develop a realistic plan that may include CBT, DBT, and Mentalization-Based Therapy, along with thoughtful medication management.

I specialize in PTSD and C-PTSD and work with LGBTQIA+ concerns, polyamory/ENM, weight-loss psychiatry, and other areas that may not receive attention in traditional mental health settings.

Your first appointment begins with a conversation about what is troubling you, not simply assigning a diagnosis. I want to understand your symptoms, concerns, history, goals, and what you hope to get from treatment. We’ll discuss explanations and treatment options, including approaches with and without medication. You should expect compassion, careful questioning, and an honest conversation. We’ll work toward a plan that addresses your needs and clarifies next steps.

You should never feel like decisions are being made without you. I value open communication and want you to feel secure, respected, and heard. My goal is to work with you rather than tell you what to do. We’ll assess what is working, what isn’t, and adjust so your care aligns with your goals.

Medication can be an important tool, but it is not the only one. When appropriate, visits may include supportive therapy, coping skills, and exploration of sleep, stress, relationships, physical health, and routines.

Our first visit is an opportunity for me to hear your story, understand your concerns, and learn what you hope will change. We will explore your symptoms, history, physical health, medications, previous treatments, sleep, stressors, strengths, and what has or has not helped. From there, we will create a plan together. Follow-ups focus on progress, response to treatment, and adjusting the plan as your needs, goals, and circumstances change.

My goal is to understand each patient's history, struggles, concerns, and goals to formulate a treatment plan unique to them. I prioritize supportive, open, and collaborative communication. I work with patients to explore treatment options, including medication and other approaches, to find what works best, since no single approach fits every patient. My focus is on sustainable strategies that help patients feel more like themselves and thrive, not just symptom management.
