Alexa Velez-Pearson

ARNP, PMHNP

I offer medication management, supportive talk therapy, and TMS treatment (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) as a Board-Certified, Adult Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). Each individual has lived a unique set of experiences that lead them to be the person they are today. My goal as a mental health provider is to help clients achieve stability and happiness while being the captain’s of their own ship. Client involvement in their treatment is important to me and I value the input they have as we embark on the journey to wellness together. I help clients recognize the how and why behind their conditions, ways to manage thoughts and feelings, and do this all with the philosophy that we are ever-evolving and set-backs happen! It is what we do in our toughest moments to get back to a life we love living that matter the most. I am patient-centered and holistic in my methods and up to date on the most recent evidence-based practices in the field of psychiatry.

Approaches to Medication & Alternative Therapies:

Medications are tools to help achieve stability in brain chemistry that pave the way for developments and breakthroughs in therapy
All medications prescribed are supported by evidence-based practice and current research
Conservative prescribing for safety is a priority and my goal is to help you feel better while maintaining mind-body balance
Educated in holistic medicine and alternative therapies such as meditation practices, psychedelic therapy, vagal nerve activation techniques, and pineal gland modulation

About Me:

I am a mother of six beautiful children and enjoy creating art, writing and playing music, and philanthropy. I am a life-long learner and always enjoy it when my clients, family, or friends introduce me to new things whether it be shows, songs, jokes, or interesting facts! I love animals and have two cats who keep me on my toes. My biggest wish for myself and for others is to find our authentic selves, to live truthfully, and to love freely.
