Find a licensed psychiatrist or psychiatric NP in Jacksonville, FL

Hi, I'm Nikkia Gattuso, a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC). I work with adults and older adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress, insomnia, mood disorders, and life transitions. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck and are looking for practical solutions and lasting relief. My approach is warm, collaborative, and personalized. I take the time to listen, understand your goals, and create a treatment plan that helps you improve your mental health, build resilience, and feel more like yourself again.

My approach is collaborative, supportive, and focused on practical solutions. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, and mood disorders in adults and older adults. You can expect personalized care, thoughtful medication management, and a safe space to build resilience, confidence, and lasting emotional wellness. 

Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. Whether you're facing a difficult season or looking for lasting change, I'm here to help. When you're ready, I welcome the opportunity to support you on your journey toward healing and growth.

Getting the right psychiatric medication can be life-changing and finding someone who truly takes the time to understand you makes all the difference. I specialize in medication management for depression, anxiety, PTSD, and OCD, working with adults navigating everything from career stress and academic pressure in their 20s to the demands of family and professional life in their 30s, 40s, and beyond. I hold a Doctor of Nursing Practice in lifespan psychiatric-mental health from the University of Florida and bring both clinical rigor and genuine curiosity to every client. 

I take a whole-person approach to medication management: evaluating sleep, diet, movement, work, relationships, and physical health alongside relevant routine labs. Medication, when indicated, is used thoughtfully to stabilize during an episode, then tapered when clinically appropriate. My goal is your long-term wellness, not lifelong medication. 

If you've been wondering whether medication might help you feel like yourself again, you're not alone. I'd love to help you find clarity and a plan that truly fits your life. When you're ready to take that next step, I encourage you to schedule an appointment.

My name is Kaydean and I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. I work with ages 12 and up. I have been treating depression and anxiety since 2019, while working as a family nurse practitioner. I changed specialties when I became aware of the shortage in mental health and I wanted to help bridge that gap in client care. I typically work with adults who face high levels of stress. These adults sometimes have trauma or an underlying mood disorder and seek my help to maintain function and productivity in their daily lives. 

I address these concerns through medication management and psychotherapy. I'm conservative in my treatment plans and will rule out underlying medical issues. 

After all that you have been through, it makes sense that you are stressed and feeling like you have no more bandwidth left. Let's explore these feelings together.
