Sarah Allison PMHNP-BC.

“I help overwhelmed parents, professionals, and teens ages 15+ who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction attain peace, clarity, and motivation.

 

I achieve this by integrating conventional treatments, such as medication, lab work, and therapy, with proven natural methods, including lifestyle adjustments, nutritional coaching, and nutraceutical recommendations.

 

Additionally, I offer TMS and Esketamine/Spravato for treatment-resistant depression. My approach is trauma-informed and includes faith-based counseling for those who wish to incorporate spirituality into their wellness plan.”

My Services

Psychiatric Evaluations and Assessments

Evaluation and assessment are the primary tools employed to understand and evaluate the mental, physical, and spiritual state of each client. We will then develop a thorough, holistic treatment plan. Don't hesitate to explore your concerns.

​

2

Medication Management & Prescribing

Whether you are considering medication for the first time or need a new regimen, I am here to help. With the addition of lifestyle changes, therapy, and nutraceuticals, we can keep the dose low and possibly shorten the course for those who are concerned about side effects.

3

Psychotherapy

 I offer various types of therapy including CBT, Motivational Interviewing, trauma informed, and faith-based. 

Choose between brief psychotherapy during a 25 minute follow-up, or a more thorough therapy session during the 50 min follow-up option.

Relaxation and Focus Exercises

Research proves many methods that help promote true relaxation. For example, breathing helps clients:​​

  • lower heart rate and blood pressure

  • promote relaxation

  • overcome feelings of anxiety

Let's discuss grounding, earthing exercises, or progressive relaxation techniques to calm any hyper arousal.​​​

Nutrition and Lifestyle Counseling

I have revamped my diet and that of my family. We have seen first hand how simply swapping out the ingredients in the pantry can improve our well-being with both physical health and mental health. It can seem like an insurmountable hurdle to develop new habits. I can help you push through to attain your diet and exercise goals. I lead by example.

Lab-work and Nutracuticles

If you're experiencing symptoms of fatigue, anxiety, or distractibility, it's possible that medical conditions or nutritional deficiencies could be the cause. We can review your labs and symptoms together and explore options for supplements including but not limited to: Omega-3, Magnesium, and Vitamin B & D to help.

My Approach: More than meds

What distinguishes Every Thought Psychiatry? I am in awe of the intricate processes of the human brain and body. With cutting-edge technologies like fMRI, PET, NIRS, MEG, and EEG, science is constantly mapping and exploring the complex neural pathways and neurotransmitters that make up our minds. Psychiatry needs to recognize the importance of addressing health at the neuronal level and also delve into how genetic variations like SNPs, can impact the body's ability to process essential nutrients. My commitment to staying at the forefront of modern medicine helps to provide the best possible care for clients. Reach out today to learn more about these approaches and services.

Why I do not take insurance.

I have chosen to operate without insurance due to my previous experiences within the insurance-based model, which often resulted in significant client dissatisfaction. I frequently found the next patients accumulating in the waiting room. My primary goal is to provide each client with a comprehensive appointment that thoroughly addresses their concerns while also respecting their time. 

 

This approach enables me to deliver a much higher standard of care and foster stronger client relationships. Superbills will be provided to easily submit to your insurance.

About Me.

At the age of 18, I found my calling in nursing and caring for others. I derive joy from helping people during their difficult times. I take inspiration from Harriet Tubman for her bravery in guiding others to safety and freedom. During my academic years, I was drawn to the therapy classes and the integrative medicine studies. I strongly believe in the effectiveness of natural healing modalities, and I am passionate about the idea of food being our medicine, as famously quoted by Hippocrates.

​​​​​​

I started my healthcare experience in 1995 when I obtained my RN degree.  I have a deep understanding of life’s challenges, shaped by my personal experiences as a mother of seven, including three who spent weeks in the NICU, and as a caregiver for my husband following his double lung transplant.

 

My journey through insomnia, depression, and panic attacks has forged my empathetic and effective approach to mental health. 

​

Throughout my calling to care for my family (and myself) I have delved into holistic, complimentary, alternative, and natural approaches to optimize our wellness. My choice to pursue psychiatry came from a desire to more effectively walk alongside friends and family through depression, panic, ADHD, divorce, and devastating addictions.

​

With personal experience raising and launching four (so far) of my own children into adulthood, I have a special understanding and commitment to supporting teens through their unique challenges. I also homeschooled them for over a decade. All this life experience his helps me:

​

  • Know how to set boundaries with compassion

  • Teach and educate all types of personalities

  • Help bring out the best in others

  • Handle working with difficult people in the middle of challenges

  • See humanity in people that other clinicians may find difficult

  • Be positive and motivating, organized → helpful for patients with ADHD, adolescents, and failure-to-launch

​

My friends and family describe me as encouraging, supportive, and gentle, with a kind and persistent demeanor.

​

Patients have expressed a strong preference for me due to my calm, compassionate demeanor and my ability to build rapport, and address their concerns. For those who desire to begin our sessions with prayer, I am always thrilled to!

​

During my free time, I love cooking scrumptious gluten and dairy-free meals with my kids, chatting about their day, and sharing a good laugh. Additionally, I enjoy swimming and jogging with my furry companion.​

​

I believe that every problem has a solution or a path to improvement. My empathetic and holistic approach ensures that all aspects of a patient’s life are considered. I offer a compassionate perspective and provide personalized support that goes beyond traditional models, recognizing the value of close connections and comprehensive care.

​

I am currently collaborating with Dr. Paul Looney.
