Meet Tina Chen
Experienced RN & PMHNP-BC | Expert in ADHD, Anxiety, and Depression Care
Hello, I'm Tina Chen, a dedicated psychiatric nurse practitioner with a passion for mental health care. With licenses to practice in several states including OH, MI, NC, CA, FL, and TX, I'm committed to providing exceptional mental health services. I hold a Post-Master’s Certificate in Psychiatric Nurse Practice and a Master of Science in Nursing, supported by my extensive background in psychiatric nursing.
Currently, I work at Happier Living, where I assess, diagnose, and treat clients dealing with mental health challenges and ADHD. I bring a compassionate approach to therapy, utilizing techniques like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to support my clients' well-being.
Previously, I honed my skills at Mindful Health Solutions and Aurora Charter Oak, where I gained valuable experience in patient care and supervision in psychiatric settings. Fluent in both English and Mandarin, I strive to make my services accessible to diverse communities.
In my career, I focus on individualized care, working collaboratively with patients to develop treatment plans that fit their unique needs. Being a part of the American Psychiatric Nurse’s Association keeps me at the forefront of best practices in mental health care.
I'm here to listen, help, and empower you on your journey to better mental health.
