Medication Management Therapists in Nashville

I’m Richard Yadon, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and founder of MindCare Health in Franklin, Tennessee. I work primarily with driven professionals—executives, entrepreneurs, attorneys, and high-capacity adults—who appear successful outwardly but feel mentally overloaded internally. With years of nursing experience and advanced psychiatric training, I combine evidence-based medication management with practical, holistic strategies. My focus goes beyond symptom relief. I evaluate sleep, stress, executive function, lifestyle patterns, and performance demands—because high achievers don’t just want to feel “less anxious.” They want clarity, focus, steadiness, and sustained energy. Many patients seek care for adult ADHD, anxiety, burnout, mood instability, or complex medication questions. They value thorough assessment, clear explanations, and a structured plan tailored to real-world responsibilities—career, leadership, and family. Working with me is collaborative and direct. You can expect careful listening, thoughtful clinical judgment, measurable goals, and ongoing refinement. My aim is simple: help you think clearly, regulate effectively, and perform at your highest level without sacrificing your health or your values.

My professional background includes community health, rural health, pediatrics, private practice, and now independent practice; after completing the Vanderbilt PMHNP program in 2012. I am a Behaviorist at heart, learning techniques through years of equestrian competition and as a BCBA assistant for 1-on-1 behavioral therapy with nonverbal to inconsistently verbal autistic children in-home, in the schools, and at day-camps. Communication and authenticity are foundational inspirations. My life is currently blossoming with playing in the garden, socializing with treasured friends, centering in yoga, international and domestic mountain and beach travel, learning to ride a motorcycle, taking aerial arts classes, Latin dancing, and bringing found object art back into my life. Creating a lovely life for myself and my baby boy is my primary motivator.

I provide integrative med managment including therapy for adult population relating mental health issues. I believe in healing through collective effort from the patient and the providers side.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner based in Nashville, Tennessee. I’m originally from Montgomery, Alabama, and I’ve called Nashville home since 2018. I earned my undergraduate degree from the University of Mississippi and later completed Belmont University’s accelerated nursing program. After graduating from Belmont, I worked as a registered nurse at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where I cared for patients with complex medical and psychiatric needs. I went on to complete my Doctor of Nursing Practice degree at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, specializing in psychiatric mental health, and now practice as a PMHNP. Outside of work, I’m a mother who loves spending time with my family, traveling, and expressing my creativity through hand embroidery.
