Elizabeth Garton, APRN, PMHNP-BC
Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
“The thing I love most about my career is the ability to help others and make a difference in someone’s life, whether it be by prescribing medication to treat targeted symptoms or just by being there to listen. Often, we may be the only one they can talk to and lets them feel heard.”
