Transforming Mental Health, One Person at a Time: Discover Stephanie's Holistic Approach
Welcome! I’m thrilled you are here. My name is Stephanie Boudreaux and I am a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) committed to providing compassionate, holistic mental health care. Whether you’re facing perinatal challenges or going through some tough life changes, my goal is to create an inviting and supportive space where you can feel comfortable taking the next step on your journey toward well-being.




A Passion for Perinatal Psychiatry
While I aim to serve a broad spectrum of people, my specialized focus lies in perinatal psychiatry. Mother's mental health, much like their physical health, plays a crucial role in the well-being of their children and family. Perinatal mental health issues have long been overlooked or misunderstood, which is why I am deeply passionate about offering a space for mothers to feel heard, understood, and cared for.
From preconception counseling to addressing postpartum mood disorders, my intention is to be a cornerstone in this community—bringing in new, indispensable resources for maternal mental health. However, my services extend to everyone aged five and up, because mental health knows no boundaries, be it age or circumstance.

Services Tailored to Your Needs
Psychiatric Evaluations
Every individual is unique, and so are their mental health needs. My comprehensive psychiatric evaluations are designed to offer a thorough understanding of your emotional and psychological landscape. The goal is to tailor a personalized treatment plan that fits you perfectly.



Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy can be incredibly effective in helping people understand their emotions, develop coping strategies, and improve their overall mental health. Whether you need help navigating life's challenges or addressing specific issues like anxiety or depression, my psychotherapy sessions are designed to provide a safe, supportive environment for growth and healing.

Medication Management
Alongside therapy, I offer medication management to enhance treatment outcomes. By carefully monitoring and adjusting your medications as needed, we aim to achieve the best possible balance and well-being. This integrated approach ensures that you're receiving comprehensive care tailored to your needs.

Here are some of the conditions I specialize in treating for individuals aged five and up:
ADHD: Helping children and adults focus and thrive through personalized treatment plans.

Preparing for pregnancy involves more than just physical health. Preconception counseling addresses mental health factors, setting the stage for a successful and joyful journey into motherhood.

Postpartum Depression
Postpartum depression is more common than most people think. My goal is to offer empathetic, effective treatment options to help you get back to feeling like yourself.

Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders
Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders can be crippling but are often overlooked. With specialized care, we can navigate this challenging terrain together, helping you find strength and joy during this critical period.

Postpartum Mood Disorders
Beyond anxiety and depression, postpartum mood disorders encompass a range of emotional challenges. Together, we will develop a treatment plan that meets your unique needs during this pivotal time.

Postpartum anxiety can interfere with your ability to enjoy motherhood. Through a combination of therapy and medication management, I work to alleviate anxiety symptoms so you can be present and connected.
