Melinda Rader, Nurse Practitioner
Mindy Rader is a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in Illinois who has been practicing since 2015. She has an AND from Lincolnland Community College, a BSN from Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville, an MSN from University of Phoenix, and a Post-graduate PMHNP certification from Saint Louis University. Mindy offers medication management with a supportive and collaborative attitude. She has a non-judgmental manner and spends the time needed to get to know each of her clients so that she can understand each personās unique history and needs. This allows her to create a plan focusing on results in the present and in the future. Mindy often intermixes psychotherapy interventions such as CBT into our appointments. Outside of work, Mindy enjoys flower gardening, traveling, and beekeeping.
