Welcome to Your Holistic Mental Health Journey
Adults, Children, Adolescents, Couples, Families
Welcome. My name is Kristen Richardson, and I am a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in private practice.
At the heart of my work is a deep intention to bring love into the world. I am passionate about supporting people in transforming their lives in ways that feel authentic, meaningful, and truly healing. My life’s work is devoted to learning how to best support both myself and others—and I love sharing what I continue to discover along the way.
My approach is trauma-informed, integrating somatic awareness and grounded in spiritual psychology. I believe that true healing involves the whole person—mind, body, and inner experience—and I strive to create a space where I can be fully present with all of you.
Meet Your Provider
Services I Provide
I offer both psychotherapy and medication management, giving you the flexibility to receive integrated care in one place or to work with me alongside other providers. While I provide both services, psychotherapy is the foundation of my practice and the most common way clients choose to work with me.
Healing Touch
An integrative approach that focuses on supporting the body’s energy system. It can be incorporated into sessions to enhance relaxation, promote balance, support self-awareness, and healing on a deeper level.
Psychotherapy
This Spiritual Psychology approach allows us to gain insight into the patterns that keep us from being the best version of ourselves possible. We intuitively know we are here to heal; it is my experience that receiving support with this process allows optimal growth and learning.
Medication Managment
Whether you are interested in alternatives to medication, want to discuss medication options, or want to remain on or adjust your current medication, I'm here to provide thoughtful discussion, education, and support. We work together to find the right balance, always honoring your unique experience and goals.
Greek definition of psychology:
“The study of the SOUL.”
Behind my Business
Kristen Richardson, MSN, ARNP, PMHNP-BC, HTI-P
I have been devoted to the field of mental health since 1995. This work is not just my profession—it is my soul’s passion.
I believe we are capable of more than what the current mental health system offers. Healing is not simply about managing symptoms—it is about transformation. It is about reconnecting with yourself, understanding your inner world, and creating meaningful, lasting change.
My work is rooted in the belief that true healing happens when we honor the whole person—mind, body, and soul. This means slowing down, listening deeply, and creating space for awareness, integration, and growth.
I am here to be part of a shift in how we approach mental health care—toward something more compassionate, more connected, more loving, and more aligned with who you truly are.
I attended the University of Iowa and am nationally certified as both a Family Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and a Clinical Nurse Specialist in Child and Adolescent Psychiatric-Mental Health. I am also a certified Healing Touch Practitioner.
