About your provider
Nicholas Eddy, PMHNP
Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner & founder of Northwest Psychiatry LLC — providing compassionate, evidence-based telepsychiatry to Maine, with Washington State services expanding in 2027.
His story
Psychiatry built on genuine connection
Nicholas Eddy is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with specialized training in diagnosing and treating a wide range of mental health conditions. He founded Northwest Psychiatry LLC with a clear mission: make high-quality psychiatric care accessible to everyone in Maine, regardless of where they live.
As a fully telepsychiatric practice, Nicholas meets clients via secure video — eliminating the barriers of distance, commute, and wait times that too often delay people from getting the support they need.
His approach is integrative and collaborative: combining medication management when appropriate with therapy, mindfulness, and goal-oriented strategies — all tailored to the individual in front of him.
Northwest Psychiatry currently serves clients throughout Maine, with plans to expand services to Washington State in 2027 — further extending access to compassionate psychiatric care across the Pacific Northwest.
“Every person deserves care that meets them where they are — thoughtful, unhurried, and built around their unique story.”
How I work
A thoughtful, whole-person approach
“Healing is not linear — it’s a conversation.”
01
Listen first
Every appointment begins with genuine curiosity about your experience. Nicholas takes the time to understand your history, your goals, and what hasn't worked before — so nothing is prescribed in a vacuum.
02
Collaborate on a plan
Treatment isn't something done to you — it's developed with you. Whether that means medication, therapy techniques, lifestyle adjustments, or a combination, the path forward is always one you understand and agree with.
03
Adapt and evolve
Mental health is not static. Regular check-ins allow the plan to evolve as you do — adjusting medications, refining strategies, and celebrating progress along the way.
