Overview

Hello, I'm Jessica Strong (she/ her), a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) licensed in Washington State. I have a Doctor of Nursing Practice from the University of Washington and a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Columbia University. I specialize in pediatric and young adult patients, tailoring my care to each patient's preferences, strengths, and limitations. In addition to assessing for the need for medication, I focus on developing coping skills, communication, and problem-solving abilities.

As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I completed additional coursework in transgender health during my doctoral program. I believe medication alone is rarely the answer, so I emphasize the importance of developing skills and identifying appropriate supports for recovery and success. I genuinely enjoy working with kids, teens, young adults, and their families. Reach out to me for personalized care and support.
