Meet Chandler Reed
Chandler Reed is a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner who brings compassion and curiosity to his work. His clinical experience spans inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, pediatric mental health, addiction medicine, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) clinics, urgent care, and primary care. He also has direct experience with advanced psychiatric interventions including transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), ketamine therapy, and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). This wide-ranging background allows Chandler to approach mental health care with flexibility, insight, and respect for the full spectrum of healing.
Clients often describe Chandler as a great listener, thoughtful teacher, and someone who makes them feel genuinely supported. His approach is non-judgmental and curious, he’s not afraid to ask questions and dive deeper to understand what’s beneath the surface. He uses evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). At the core of his philosophy is the belief that the body and mind are not separate but work as an integrated system, each influencing the other in health and healing.
Chandler was drawn to nursing because it gave him the opportunity to truly connect with people, not just focus on disease or treatment, but to understand the full picture of someone’s life and health. He values spending time with his patients, learning their stories, and supporting them in ways that consider their emotional, physical, relational, spiritual, and cognitive well-being. His professional path is also shaped by personal experience: an uncle lost to suicide, and two others who are powerful examples of long-term sobriety and recovery. These experiences fuel his passion for helping others rewrite their stories, move beyond unhelpful thought patterns, and grow into stronger, more empowered versions of themselves.
He is especially attuned to working with individuals navigating faith transitions or religious trauma, including those from high-demand religious backgrounds, and finds meaning in creating safe spaces for clients from the LGBTQ+ community and all walks of life. Chandler believes that everyone deserves compassionate, informed care and that mental health is a vital part of whole-person wellness.
Outside of clinical work, Chandler enjoys spending time outdoors, whether it’s running, mountain biking, or working in the garden. He has a deep love for music and considers himself an audiophile, appreciating a wide range of genres. Music has always been part of his life, his mother and grandmother were both piano teachers, and it remains a meaningful source of reflection and connection. He also enjoys reading about psychology, spirituality, and personal growth, and values quiet, present moments with his family.
“Wholeness is not perfection, but the quiet grace of being unfinished, complete and changing all at once.”
If you’re looking for a space to explore, grow, and heal at your own pace, I’d be honored to walk with you.
