Shy Johnson, PMHNP-BC, APRN-RX – Psychiatric Nurse/Therapist
I am a private practice psychiatric nurse/therapist serving clients in and around Honolulu, Hawaii. As your provider, it is my priority to create a therapeutic atmosphere that promotes growth and positive change, for you. I look forward to working with you to addresses your challenges and realize your goals.
Treatment Approach
I believe mental health care should feel human, never rushed, never judgmental. My approach is rooted in compassion, collaboration, and cultural humility. I take time to truly listen so we can understand not just what’s going on, but why.
I use evidence-based practices like psychiatric medication management alongside supportive conversation, psychoeducation, and lifestyle strategies. Whether you’re managing, ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, or any other psychiatric illnesses, we’ll work together to create a plan that feels doable, personalized, and aligned with your goals.
You’re the expert in your life–I’m here to support your growth, not define it.
