I’m Cassandra Fortune, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-C) with over 10 years of nursing experience. My journey in mental health care is driven by my belief in compassionate, patient-centered treatment that focuses on the whole person—mental, emotional, and physical. I founded Mindful NP Psychiatry with the vision of providing a space where patients feel truly heard, supported, and empowered in their mental health journey.

I specialize in treating a wide range of conditions, including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, psychotic disorders, and dementia-related behavioral symptoms. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, but it’s the personalized care and attention I give to each individual that truly sets my practice apart. I take the time to get to know my patients—what they’re going through, what they need, and how they want to feel throughout the process of recovery.

With a background in both long-term care and private practice, I have a deep understanding of the importance of continuity and consistency in care. I believe in a collaborative approach, working alongside my patients, their families, and other healthcare professionals to create tailored treatment plans that evolve with each individual’s needs. My goal is not just to manage symptoms, but to help my patients build long-term mental wellness and resilience.

I also strive to reduce the stigma around mental health, fostering an open and honest dialogue about the challenges people face. Whether you’re seeking an initial diagnosis, medication management, or ongoing psychotherapy, I’m here to support you every step of the way. My work is my passion, and I’m committed to empowering you to take control of your mental health.

If you’re ready to start this journey, I’d love to meet you and explore how we can work together to achieve your mental health goals.
