Meet Melissa McCalister, PMHNP-BC
Melissa McCalister is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a profound understanding that individuals yearn to be genuinely heard and guided. "Embodied with the principle that one should "change what they can and manage what they can’t". Melissa approaches her practice with an open-minded, empowering, and solution-oriented mindset."
​​
Her journey in healthcare began with a curiosity about human behavior. As she delved deeper into understanding the psyche, Melissa’s passion for mental health care blossomed. Serving patients in diverse roles over the years, she solidified her expertise and commitment to improved access to care for people with mental health conditions through telehealth. This pursuit led her to achieve her post-masters certification in the Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Program at Wilkes University.
Our Approach
You can expect a collaborative atmosphere where she “meets patients where they are” by crafting individualized plans aimed for success. For Melissa, instilling hope is paramount, motivating patients to embrace recovery and empowering them to chart their path toward self-acceptance.
With the understanding that the journey to mental wellness is deeply personal and varies from one individual to another, we cater to the unique needs of each person.
Living in recovery from mental illness is like the journey of the lotus flower, a testament to resilience and beauty amidst adversity. Born from murky depths, the lotus rises upward. Every petal that blossoms symbolizes not just survival, but triumph. We often overlook such modest victories in the hustle and bustle of life. Perhaps, the journey of the lotus flower is similar to your life journey.
