Sandy Howard, NP-BC
I provide a private psychiatric medication service with specialized and compassionate care for mental health or substance use disorders through tele-psychiatry. My philosophy incorporates evidence-based science, and wellness... the connection of mind, body and spirit. I take the time to assess what influences your unique concept of self, your strengths, your vulnerabilities, and your outlook on life. The right medication and coping skills can help ease symptoms so you can restore the balance you need to pursue a fulfilling, meaningful, and successful life.
"Out of your vulnerabilities will come strength."
~Sigmund Freud
I live in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina. I feel connected to nature, animals and music.
