Lindsay Avis

MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC

I’ve been a nurse since 2001, with most of my early career spent in Critical Care and Nephrology – fields that taught me how to stay calm under pressure and see the full clinical picture. I’ve also worked in Medication – Assisted Treatment (MAT), where I deepened my understanding of addiction and recovery. Over the years, I’ve taken on leadership roles that strengthened my ability to guide teams and navigate complex systems. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Indiana Wesleyan University and became a Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Today, I bring both clinical depth and whole-person perspective to every patient I care for..

Meet Your Provider

I’m a proud mom of six who knows the value of patience, resilience, and compassion in everyday life. I’m someone who genuinely cares about people not just their symptoms, but their stories. I believe in a holistic approach to mental health care, where listening with intent is just as important as clinical expertise. My goal is to partner with each person I see, working together to build thoughtful, effective treatment plans that reflect their needs, values, and goals. I work hard, stay open, and continue learning always aiming to provide care that feels both grounded and empowering.
