PSYCHIATRIC
MEDICATION
Dr. Smith is a dual board certified nurse practitioner who is deeply committed to her work. She spends a great deal of time researching new treatments and analyzing the psychopharmacology of the medication she prescribes.
HOLISTIC
APPROACH
Not everyone wants or needs medication. Lifestyle changes, therapy, and supplements can also be beneficial. Dr. Smith will work with you to create a personalized plan that aligns with your comfort and needs.
GENETIC
TESTING
If you feel like you've tried every medication and nothing has worked, Dr. Smith uses Genesight psychotropic testing to analyze how your genes impact medication outcomes.
I truly can’t speak more highly of Dr. Janet and her practice, she is kind, caring and excellent at her work. I have seen several different therapist throughout many years but she is the one that has diagnosed and helped me tremendously. Truly a Godsend!

Dr Smith is the absolute best!! I’ve struggled with anxiety for years but due to some life events, it was getting out of control. She does the best thing a doctor can do, she listens to her patients and develops treatment from there. Such a simple concept you would think everyone would do it. But nope, most don’t. And that’s why I don’t see any of them anymore. Once I found Dr Smith my life got so much better. I’m actually doing better than I was before all the life stuff happened. I’m forever grateful for her and you will be too

I have been seeing Dr. Smith for over a year now and I cannot recommend her more! She is very compassionate and attentive to my needs. I can tell she is genuinely interested in my life and recovery. I am looking forward to continued growth with her.

Dr. Janet Smith
DNP, PMHNP-BC, FNP-BC, ASDCS
Dr. Smith has a Doctorate in Nursing Practice and is board certified as both a Psychiatric and Family Nurse Practitioner. She has a comprehensive understanding of how medications interact on both the mind and body and has a holistic approach to mental health. She has been an RN since 1996 and has worked in many specialties including open heart recovery, ICU, ER, and hospice. Dr. Smith worked as a family nurse practitioner for years and was frustrated that there was no where to refer patients for mental health care. She chose to return for a post-doctorate degree in psychiatry to provide the care she knew was desperately needed. She also chose to get additional education and certification in Autism because her spouse and daughter are on the spectrum. She personally knows how difficult it can be to find providers who understand each person's unique needs. She specializes in diagnosing Adults with Autism because most options only focus on kids, and adults present differently. Adults have years of experience with masking and coping skills. They have unique needs due to struggles in the workforce, romantic relationships, finances, and parenthood. She also treats adults aging out of Kennedy Krieger Institute and other organizations.
