Dr. Rebecca Palmer
Doctor of nursing practice
psychiatric Nurse Practitioner
Approach to Care
My approach is collaborative and I believe mental health care should be personalized—because no two people experience life the same way. Your goals, challenges, and needs are unique, and your care should reflect that.
While med management is central, I also offer practical strategies—helping you navigate obstacles with evidence-based, whole-person care. My goal is to help you navigate challenges, build self-awareness, and move toward lasting change.
Outside of Work
So many hobbies, but sports have always been a constant — whether it’s fishing, coaching basketball, playing golf, watching my teenage son compete, or watching football on TV. I also love playing the piano, camping, art, and most of all.. Travel and experiencing other cultures!
