Erica Wait

Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC
Last Updated 30+ days ago

I am an APRN, PMHNP-BC providing virtual psychiatric care across Texas for adolescents, college students, and adults. I work with students navigating stress, academic pressure, anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, and major life transitions. I also have specialized training in child and adolescent psychiatry and family-focused care, including adoption-related dynamics. My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth, focusing on what’s actually affecting your day-to-day life and school experience. I combine medication management with practical, skills-based strategies like motivational interviewing, DBT skills, ACT, and interpersonal therapy to help you feel more steady, focused, and supported.
