Theresa Parkhurst

After graduating from Beebe School of Nursing (now known as Margaret H Rollins School of Nursing) in 2003, Theresa went immediately into psychiatric nursing in the acute inpatient setting.  ANCC certified as a psychiatric nurse since 2006, Theresa decided to pursue her Advanced Practice Nursing degree in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing.  She obtained her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from University of Delaware in 2010 and her Master of Science in Nursing from Drexel University in 2014 before becoming ANCC certified as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.  Licensed to practice across the lifespan, Theresa first specialized in children and adolescents, and later started to see adults as well. 

Theresa endeavors to provide clients with acceptance, support, and guidance on their journey of self-improvement.  Her approach is practical and straightforward utilizing pharmacotherapy to help clients gain better control over their behaviors and emotions. 

Currently, Theresa is primarily providing services through telemedicine, allowing clients the convenience of having their visits in the community in the setting they prefer.  She works in partnership with the other Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners at Cape Wellness Center to ensure safe, effective, evidence based care.
