Our 
Story

The vision for Mind & Body Wellness began long before its launch—back when I first started my journey toward becoming a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). From the very beginning, my goal was clear: to build a private, cash-pay telehealth practice that removes common barriers to care.

Too many people struggle to access mental health support due to transportation challenges, a shortage of providers, or demanding schedules. I wanted to change that by offering care that is accessible, flexible, and free from the limitations of insurance-driven models.

Starting this business from the ground up has been a true adventure—both professionally and personally. Every step has been guided by a deep commitment to serving others with compassion, integrity, and clinical excellence.

We’re excited for what’s ahead and proud to grow a practice that reflects everything we believe in: equity, empathy, and whole-person care.

About Me.

Hi, I’m Alyssa Marso, a board-certified Nurse Practitioner with a passion for delivering holistic, accessible mental health care. I began my nursing journey with a strong foundation in medical-surgical, oncology, pediatrics, emergency medicine, and crisis psychiatry. Over time, I was drawn to the deep and lasting impact of mental health support and specialized in psychiatric care.

I completed my Advanced Practice certifications (AGNP, FNP, PMHNP) at Maryville University between 2015–2019, and most recently earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) in 2024. My clinical background includes working in crisis psychiatry, outpatient psychiatric care, and emergency departments, providing care to patients across the lifespan. I also have additional training in addiction medicine, which helps guide individualized and evidence-based care for those facing these challenges.

 

In launching Mind & Body Wellness, my goal is to offer high-quality psychiatric care without the limitations of physical location or insurance restrictions. This telehealth practice allows me to connect with individuals where they are—literally and emotionally.

 

Your mental and physical health matter, and I’m honored to support you on your journey toward balance and wellness.
