Edward Franklin

Catalyst CRNP

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of where to turn next in your mental health journey—you’re not alone. As a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over fifteen years of experience in healthcare, I’ve learned that healing isn’t a straight line—it’s more like a winding road with detours, rest stops, and the occasional existential speed bump. My goal is to walk that road with you, helping you reconnect with your identity, strengthen your sense of self, and navigate toward a more grounded and fulfilling life.

I approach care with curiosity and respect, starting with a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation that helps me understand you—not just your symptoms. When appropriate, I offer medication management as part of a thoughtful treatment plan tailored to your needs and your goals—not a template.

I believe in treating people, not their diagnoses. That means working closely with your multidisciplinary care team to see your experience through multiple lenses. After all, even the best ideas need good peer review.

To quote a favorite mindset: “Life begins at the edge of your comfort zone.
