A clinician who looks beyond a symptom list
Dr. Tracie Jones, DNP, MBA, PMHNP-BC, FNP-C, is a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner with more than 20 years of healthcare experience and over 10 years of experience as a nurse practitioner.
Her background in both primary care and psychiatry allows her to bring a whole-person perspective to mental healthcare. At Open Phase Health, she provides comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, psychiatric medication management, supportive therapy, patient education, and individualized, evidence-based treatment planning.
Areas of clinical focus
Dr. Tracie works with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, substance use concerns, mood disorders, OCD, trauma-related symptoms, burnout, sleep concerns, grief, stress, and major life transitions.
She has a particular interest in helping adolescents and young adults manage the pressures of school, work, relationships, family expectations, identity, and uncertainty about the future.
A collaborative treatment style
Treatment begins with listening carefully and understanding what is making daily life harder. Depending on the patient’s needs, care may incorporate supportive therapy, cognitive behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, solution-focused approaches, psychiatric medication management, and coordination with other healthcare professionals.
The goal is to help patients understand what they are experiencing, reduce symptoms, improve daily functioning, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
What integrative psychiatry means here
Dr. Tracie considers how mental health symptoms may connect with physical health, medical history, sleep, stress, lifestyle, relationships, school, work, and other factors affecting daily functioning. This approach does not mean that Open Phase Health currently provides primary care, hormone treatment, weight-management care, functional medicine, or extensive laboratory and supplement programs.
