KRISTINE PINE DONOVAN, PMHNP-BC
Hello.
I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over five years of combined psychiatric nursing and PMHNP experience.
My background spans inpatient, residential, outpatient, and community-based psychiatric care, with experience in direct bedside care, nursing administration and clinical operations, 911/988 behavioral health crisis response and suicide prevention, community-based psychiatric care for adults with serious mental illness, psychiatric evaluation involving complex clinical and level-of-care considerations, and outpatient psychiatric treatment.
I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from California State University, Long Beach in 2023. As a PMHNP-BC, my outpatient provider experience has primarily included the evaluation and treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), other anxiety disorders, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). My clinical approach emphasizes evidence-based treatment, thoughtful diagnostic formulation, psychoeducation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and shared decision-making.
My private practice operated from August 2025 and will permanently close effective October 1, 2026. The practice is no longer accepting new patients or scheduling new patient consultations or intake appointments.
Current patients have been notified of the closure and are being supported in transitioning their care to other providers.
Thank you.
