Ruth Atta, PMHNP

Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

Ruth Atta is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner at Lamplight Psychiatry LLC. She believes good psychiatric care starts with being heard — unhurried appointments, clear explanations, and treatment plans built together with you.

Her approach blends careful diagnostic evaluation, evidence-based medication management, and practical guidance — always with respect for the whole person, not just the diagnosis.
