Janet Platt-Raines, PMHNP

I am a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with more than 13 years of psychiatric nursing experience and medication management. I help adults navigate depression, anxiety, ADHD, panic disorders, bipolar disorder, insomnia, and other mental health concerns. I believe in thoughtful, evidence-based care that takes time to understand each patient as an individual.

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 use this information to develop an individualized plan based on each patient’s needs, preferences, and clinical presentation. When medication is appropriate, I discuss benefits, risks, side effects, and alternatives so patients can make informed decisions. Follow-ups focus on progress, effectiveness, tolerability, new concerns, and adjustments when clinically appropriate.

I have practiced in inpatient and outpatient settings and as a consultant/liaison for psychiatric needs in an inpatient medical setting. I have worked as a psychiatric nurse practitioner since 2018. I earned my Doctor of Nursing degree from the University of South Alabama and am nationally board certified as a PMHNP by the ANCC.

I value a collaborative approach to treatment planning and strive to create a safe, supportive environment where each patient feels heard, respected, and valued. 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.

Hello! I’m Brennan, a psychiatric nurse practitioner. My practice is grounded in compassion, curiosity, transparency, and creating an inclusive space where you feel heard and respected. 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.

My approach follows a “no surprise” method of communication. If your diagnosis, medication, treatment approach, or therapy style needs to change, I’ll explain what changed, why, and what information led us there. 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.
