Caitlin Briggs, Nurse Practitioner
Caitlin Wells Briggs, PMHNP, helps patients in South Carolina find clarity, stability, and confidence through compassionate, evidence-based medication management. She supports teens and adults by creating a calm, collaborative space where people can openly discuss their symptoms, goals, and everyday challenges. Caitlin most frequently works with individuals navigating ADHD, anxiety, and depression, drawing on years of prescriber experience to tailor medication plans that fit each person’s unique needs. She also treats additional mental health conditions, ensuring patients receive comprehensive support throughout their care journey. She is especially passionate about helping LGBTQ+ individuals, women, and military service members or veterans—groups that often face layered stressors, identity questions, or transition-related challenges. Her approach emphasizes emotional safety, attentive listening, and practical strategies that help patients regain balance and restore a sense of control. Working with teens is a meaningful part of her practice, and she strives to make adolescents feel heard and respected while supporting families through treatment options. Adults across all life stages also benefit from her steady, informed guidance as they navigate evolving mental health needs in SC. Outside of her clinical work at LifeStance Health, Caitlin enjoys reading, running, crafting, and spending time with her family.
