Wanda Lanigan APRN, PMHNP-BC
She/Her
Wanda is a highly experienced Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) who is passionate about providing integrated, whole-person care. Her journey into psychiatry began while working with patients facing complex physical illnesses, such as those in acute cardiac care and oncology. It was here that she consistently observed the profound and often overlooked connection between physical recovery and emotional and behavioral health.
​
Wanda realized that true healing is difficult when the mind and spirit are not cared for alongside the body. This core belief—that our body, mind, and spirit are not mutually exclusive—drove her to pursue advanced training in mental health, allowing her to offer the comprehensive care so many individuals need today.
