Welcome!
I am Wendy Carlson and I am a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 20 years of nursing experience.
My nursing philosophy has remained the same over the last 20 years: Every client receives the same level of care equal to what is expected for a member of my own family. Together, we will work as a team to develop a treatment plan achieving positive outcomes based on evidence based practice standards.
I am an outside of the box thinker. When others have given up, I will not. I am currently accepting new clients of all ages seeking initial diagnostic evaluations, and medication management. I look forward to meeting you.
I am co-founder/owner of Essentia Health and Wellness Center. I am a dual-board certified nurse practitioner (NP) in Psychiatry/Mental Health and Adult Health. I have practiced since 2013, obtained my doctorate degree in 2017, and received my psychiatric/mental health post-graduate certification in 2020. My NP background thus far has been in the fields of neurology, mental health, chronic pain and hospital medicine.
I have an added qualification in headache management and have published research in the areas of chronic pain and mental health in the "International Journal of Orthopaedic and Trauma Nursing" and the "Journal of Psychosocial Nursing and Mental Health Services". I am also a certified reiki provider and am currently conducting my own independent research on essential oil therapy for use in various medical and psychiatric conditions.
I believe in treating the 'entire' person...feeling mentally well can make a significant difference in your physical well-being.

“Very professional and direct. Dr. Zimmerman speaks more to me about my mood, feelings and physical being than about prescribing medications. That’s different from other doctors I have seen. He is definitely pushing me, but in a good way. I’m very comfortable with his approach.”
