Shawnte’ Farmer is board certified psychiatric nurse practitioner. She specializes in treating many psychiatric diagnoses, including Depression, Anxiety, OCD, Bipolar, addiction, and several other psychiatric symptoms. She believes a holistic approach to treating the mind and body is necessary to create significant and lasting positive change. Her approach to implementing these changes includes a wide variety of services to assess, diagnose, and treat mental and physical needs individually.
She does not believe in a “one size fits all” approach. Her assessments are meticulous, encompassing a detailed examination of your medical history, an evaluation of past and present symptoms, and the utilization of additional diagnostic tools, such as genetic testing, laboratory analyses, and psychological tests. These comprehensive assessments aim to gain a holistic understanding of your distinct individual history and current needs. Psychiatric assessments provide a foundation for creating a unique, individualized, and collaborative treatment plan to address present symptoms and, more importantly, the core issues that need to be addressed to find relief and pave the way for future success.
After completing her Bachelor of Science at Arkansas State University, Shawnte’ attended the University of South Alabama to complete her Master of Science in Nursing and Doctorate of Nursing Practice. She is certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). Her professional memberships include the American Psychiatric Nurses Association (APNA), National Alliance for Mental Illness (NAMI), and the American Nurses Association (ANA)
Shawnte’ has worked in healthcare since 2004. She began working in psychiatric healthcare settings in 2010, including inpatient acute care, forensics, residential, and outpatient services. She provides psychiatric services for patients ranging from ages 6-64. She believes in patient-centered care and providing the most therapeutic approach that will best benefit the patient, including medication management, genetic testing, psychotherapy, and education.
Shawnte’ is married with three sons. When she is not working, she enjoys spending time with her family, camping, boating on the lake, attending concerts, and watching football.

Always a productive time spent with Shawnte. Would recommend to anyone I care about.
I saw Dr. Farmer for an initial consultation after many years since my previous experience with a psychiatric professional. Although I haven't started any treatment yet through the oversight of Dr. Farmer, I can say that on this initial experience, she truly worked to listen and take all factors of my life into consideration of her medical overview. Dr. Farmer seems to be a professional, caring and well-versed provider who puts patient well-being and success as her first priority.
Shawnte is a very nice, personable and professional person to work with. I truly feel she listens and genuinely cares about my well-being. I am very thankful for her.
Shawnte listens to your symptoms and provides sound recommendations. Her passion for superb mental health is obvious and I’m glad I have her my mental health advocate.
Everything you guys do is well organized and it is easy to access medication with you guys. All the questions you ask makes things easier and it makes me feel like everything is okay.
You guys always make everything better with the questions you ask and it’s easy to access medication with you guys. There’s not one bad thing you guys do everything is well done

Dr. Farmer is extremely compassionate and very, very knowledgeable
No thank you
All the staff have always been so nice and helpful. They make you feel comfortable in what, can be, a vulnerable place to be in. I love that they have their own psychiatrist on site so you don't have to go somewhere else to have meds prescribed. Dr. Farmer is very knowledgeable and genuinely wants to find the right medication for you. She's always patient and I never feel judged with her. I would definitely recommend for anyone.
Great friendly place and very professional.
Great experience as usual. I’m always made to feel very comfortable.
Dr Farmer is amazing. She really stops to listen to your issues, but doesn't automatically throw medicine at the problem.
