About Grounded Sis

Integrative Psychiatric and Wellness Services

Ivana Spencer

Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner 

MSN, APRN, PMHNP, NC-BC

Hello, I’m Ivana Spencer, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and the founder of Grounded Sis, LLC.

I provide compassionate, patient-centered psychiatric care through a holistic approach, supporting the whole person: mind, body, and spirit. My clinical focus includes BIPOC mental health, women’s mental health, and adolescent care. I work with individuals from diverse backgrounds who are seeking affirming, integrative support on their mental health journey.

I earned my master’s degree from Chamberlain University and bring over six years of psychiatric nursing experience to my practice.​ I am deeply committed to creating a safe, empowering, and judgment-free space where healing can take place. 

At Grounded Sis Integrative Psychiatry & Wellness, I believe mental health care should feel safe, supportive, and personal—not clinical or disconnected.

I specialize in supporting women and adolescents as they navigate life transitions, emotional challenges, and conditions such as anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and perinatal mental health concerns. My goal is simple: to ensure you feel seen, heard, and supported—never rushed, dismissed, or reduced to a diagnosis.

You don’t have to navigate this season alone. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected, I’m here to listen and support you with compassion and care. When you’re ready for a more grounded, peaceful path forward, I invite you to reach out. Healing is possible, and we can take the next steps together.

Therapist And Patient

Our Approach:

We take an integrative, whole-person approach to mental health care.

This means we look beyond symptoms to understand the full picture-your lifestyle, stressors, hormones, environment, and personal experiences.

Care may include:

  • Thoughtful psychiatric evaluation and medication management

  • Holistic lifestyle support (sleep, nutrition, stress regulation, labs, supplements)

  • Trauma-informed and patient-centered care

  • Collaborative, culturally inclusive

  • Brief supportive therapy

We believe healing happens when clinical expertise meets compassion.

We are especially passionate about supporting:

  • Women

  • Perinatal and postpartum mental health

  • Individuals healing from trauma

  • Adolescents (12+) needing emotional and behavioral support

  • Clients seeking a more holistic and personalized approach to psychiatry
