Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
Kelly Crenshaw, PMHNP-BC, is a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner at Advaita Integrated Medicine in Raleigh, North Carolina. She provides comprehensive psychiatric care, including psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and holistic wellness strategies to patients of all ages.
Kelly Crenshaw has been a nurse for 18 years and a nurse practitioner for 9 years. She began her career in the hospital setting, working in cardiac and intensive care units, where she observed firsthand how mental health significantly impacts patient outcomes. Her passion for mental health led her to further her education as a family nurse practitioner, where she treated mental health disorders and found her true calling. Kelly then completed a post-master’s certification in mental health and has since provided care to clients of all ages in outpatient settings.
Kelly’s approach to care is evidence-based and holistic, focusing on medication management alongside improvements in sleep, exercise, and nutrition. She employs positivity and gratitude to help clients become the best versions of themselves. Her professional passion includes helping clients find their full potential and most productive selves by focusing on coping skills, self-advocacy, and individual strengths. Kelly enjoys educating clients on their diagnoses and treatment options to create a collaborative plan of care.
“I work with a holistic perspective, focusing on the whole person, not just the disorder. I am committed to fostering a therapeutic relationship built on empathy and respect, helping clients understand their treatment options to make informed decisions.”
Kelly is dedicated to reducing the negative stigma associated with seeking treatment for mental health issues. She believes this stigma is a significant barrier to care and strives to be supportive, inclusive, and empowering for all her clients.
