Hi and Welcome!

I'm Catalina Valencia, a dual board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Certified Nurse Midwife. After serving the community as a nurse midwife for the last 12 years, I'm now also providing psychiatric care at Nurtured Mind Psychiatry & Wellness in Hampstead, inside the Coastal Wellness Collaborative.

You can find me at 233A Merchants Circle, Suite 100, Hampstead, NC 28443. I continue to serve in my midwifery role one day a week at my other office. For psychiatric care, I welcome you to our Hampstead office or to virtual appointments across North Carolina.

My 12 years in midwifery have shaped an approach centered on creating a safe, welcoming, and judgment-free space where you feel heard, understood, and respected. With advanced training from Duke University and East Carolina University, I provide personalized, evidence-based care that treats the whole person, not just the symptoms.

I specialize in supporting women across the lifespan, as well as veterans, military spouses, and children navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and life's many transitions. Having spent more than 20 years as part of a military family, I understand firsthand the resilience, stress, and unseen challenges that can come with that lifestyle.

My care is collaborative and individualized. Together, we'll develop a thoughtful treatment plan that supports your goals and helps you move forward with confidence.
