Jane Franks, Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, has over 15 years experience working with adults with depression and anxiety disorders.

She is a fierce advocate for those who have experienced trauma and is experienced in working with patients with PTSD. When not working, Jane enjoys traveling, camping, and spending time with family, friends and her pets. She values quiet time alone as well as attending events with thousands of others. Jane has been an adjunct professor and preceptor for nursing and other mental health professional students.

It'd be nice to have provider to send check-up message after 1-1/2 weeks after prescribing different dosage/strength medication to make sure the patient is doing well.

Just continue to help me. I feel so much better just after talking with you. My boss has requested that if you could just shoot me an email. I go back on the 18th just so he knows that I completed an appointment with you. Doesn’t need to have any information about me in it as it’s in violation but just he wants to make sure that I am under the care of someone that would be greatly appreciated..
