Cassie Behseta, Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

Cassie is a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC). She has eight years of experience in both medical emergency room care and acute psychiatric care. For her, psychiatry was an obvious choice, allowing her to work with families across the lifespan and work closely and collaboratively with people. Cassie utilizes evidence-based treatments such as ketamine-assisted therapy, crisisemergency management, supportive therapy, motivational interviewing (MI), interpersonal therapy (IPT), and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). She manages and treats depression, anxiety, attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD), bipolar, posttraumatic stress (PTSD), and women's health issues. Her goal is to alleviate bothersome symptoms and maintain emotional stability and health while monitoring such treatments' effects. Cassie is passionate about the mind-body connection and its impact on one's mental health. At Thriveworks, her role includes medication management, education, therapy, and patient advocacy.

Cassie obtained her bachelor's degree as a registered nurse and her master's degree as a nurse practitioner from Indiana University. Working in both rural and inner cities has given her insight into different treatment modalities. Cassie is passionate about providing access to care across the lifespan. She sees all age ranges, from child to geriatric. Mental health problems don't define who you are. They are something you experience. You walk in the rain, and you feel the rain, but, importantly, you are ot the rain. Cassie is ready to assist you in being the best version of yourself and, most importantly, feel better.
