My name is Kerri Patton. I love being a nurse practitioner. I have worked as one for over 17 years. I am dual certified as both a family and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. I have worked in many areas over the course of my career. One theme has been present no matter the setting; all health starts and stops with mental health. My hope is to help patients find as much quality in their life as possible while improving suffering that can come along with mental illness. This is why I opened Luna Mental Health.
At Luna Mental Health, we are open to seeing ages 4 and up. I have a special interest in anxiety, mood disorders, ADHD, and eating disorders, but welcome all patients with mental health concerns.
If you or your child are struggling with mental health issues, please reach out to me. I will do a complete evaluation and work with you to come up with a plan to help. If I can't help you, I will join forces with you to find someone who can.

I am not a board certified therapist. I am a nurse practitioner. My specialty is medication, but each visit with me often involves some component of therapy related to issues the client brings up. For many people medications and therapies compliment each other. We can discuss the best options for you and I can assist with identification of a therapist if needed.
