I am Ready to Listen.

Dr. Linda Mays DNP, PMHNP-BC

I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner who researches, counsels, teaches, supervises, and consults in independent practice. I received my Florida psychiatric nurse practitioner license APRN3214672 in 2014 and Kentucky psychiatric nurse practitioner license APRN3009438 in 2015. My degrees include B.S.N. in Nursing, M.S.N. in Clinical Research Management, Post Masters Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, and D.N.P. in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing. My education and clinical training integrate lifespan applications with children, pregnant women, adolescents, adults, seniors, and the very old. I have specialty training through the Trauma Resolution Center in trauma incident reduction.

In addition to my private practice, I am a clinical supervisor, mentor, and preceptor for graduate nurses and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner students. My graduate faculty appointments have included master’s programs with the University of Miami, Nova Southeastern University, St. Thomas University, and Walden University. I am a member of the American Psychiatric Nurses Association and the Florida Nurses Association. The most current scientific discoveries are used to guide my clinical practice. My research interests include evaluating the effects of tobacco smoke on medication efficacy and increasing police office empathy towards mentally ill citizens.



My clinical practice includes guiding patients through life-transition issues: pregnant women and their unborn child, children, adolescents, young adults, middle-aged adults, seniors, and the very old. Integrative treatment approaches include counseling and recommendations for herbal preparations, aromatherapy, vitamins and minerals, medication management, brief and continuing psychotherapy, spiritual counseling, psychoeducation.

“Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn’t you – all of the expectations, all of the beliefs – and becoming who you are.”
