Deanette James specializes in providing mental health medication management.

She has had traumatic experiences, starting with the death of her dad when she was 10 months old and the passing of her mom recently due to stage 4 cancer, so she has high interest in providing care to patients who have experienced trauma as well as associated anxiety and depression. Additionally, she lives with chronic pain and autoimmune disorders, so she likes to focus on chronic illnesses and providing care to patients who are experiencing and navigating health stressors which also leads to anxiety, depression, and trauma among other disorders. She does utilize online groups to provide support to people experiencing physical and mental health disorders when she is limited by physical symptoms.

​

Imagine being able to process the trauma experienced years ago, through some unfortunate circumstances, and is now wreaking havoc on your life? Not just that, but you are anxious, depressed, and feel like you are not progressing, not fulfilling your goals, and not being the best you could be for your family?

​

She obtained her BSN through Western Governors University and her MSN through Eastern Kentucky University. She believes it is not possible to achieve physical wellness if one's mental health is not taken care of first. She also believes her purpose in life involves helping people struggling with mental and emotional problems to cope better and intend on dedicating herself to this. She has been a nurse for over 17 years and worked in every specialty, but psychiatry has been her niche since caring for behavioral health patients during nursing school.
