Why Choose Healthy Minds Psychiatry in Olympia, WA?
Compassionate Psychiatric Care in Olympia & Thurston County
A Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) is an advanced practice registered nurse with specialized graduate-level training in psychiatric diagnosis and treatment. PMHNPs are licensed to prescribe psychiatric medications and provide psychotherapy — offering patients the same scope of care as many psychiatrists.
Choosing a PMHNP means receiving expert, evidence-based psychiatric care with a personal, relationship-centered approach. Dr. Kler takes time to understand each patient’s unique history, symptoms, and goals — building a treatment plan that reflects the whole person, not just the diagnosis.
At Healthy Minds Psychiatry, psychiatric care is delivered alongside Heritage Family Medicine’s primary care team, giving patients the benefit of truly integrated, whole-person healthcare under one roof in Olympia, WA.
Mental Health Services We Offer in Olympia, WA
Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluations
Your first visit is a thorough 60-minute evaluation where Dr. Kler reviews your mental health history, current symptoms, past medications, and life circumstances to establish an accurate diagnosis and build an individualized care plan tailored specifically to you.
Medication
Management
Once your treatment plan is in place, we closely monitor the effectiveness of your medications at regular follow-up visits. We adjust dosages or medications as needed to achieve the best possible outcomes with minimal side effects — always keeping your goals at the center of your care.

Appointments
Ongoing follow-up appointments allow us to track your progress, address new concerns, and refine your treatment over time. We offer both in-person follow-ups at our Olympia clinic and secure telehealth appointments for patients who prefer to meet from home.
Mental Health

We use validated clinical screening tools — including the PHQ-9 for depression, GAD-7 for anxiety, PCL-5 for PTSD, and ADHD rating scales — to support accurate diagnosis and objectively measure how well your treatment is working over time.
Psychoeducation
Understanding your diagnosis is a powerful part of recovery. We take time at each visit to explain your condition, how your medications work, what to expect during treatment, and how to recognize signs of progress — empowering you to take an active role in your own mental health.
