Book an appointment with Francis Kangara, PMHNP-BC, Psychiatric & Mental Health,

Hello! I’m Francis Kangara, a board-certified psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and the founder of Elevate Psychiatry & Wellness, PLLC. I specialize in working with adolescents, adults, and families facing mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, mood swings, or simply the feeling of not being like yourself. Many of my clients come to me when they feel out of balance—whether it’s the overwhelming pressure of being a student, a parent concerned about a teen’s behavior, or a professional who has always held things together but now finds themselves struggling. Sometimes the changes are subtle—trouble sleeping, a decrease in joy, or racing thoughts—and sometimes they are more acute —panic attacks, emotional exhaustion, or thoughts that life isn’t worth living.

My approach is warm, culturally sensitive, and clinically grounded. I view you as a whole person, not just a set of symptoms. We will work together to identify a treatment plan that works for you.
