Master of Science in Nursing (MSN), University of Pennsylvania
Cathy Nam
Cathy Nam is a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing from the University of Pennsylvania and a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Maryland. She specializes in mood disorders, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, and psychotic disorders, providing psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and psychotherapy when appropriate.
At the heart of Cathy’s practice is a belief that patients are the leaders of their own treatment. Rather than prescribing from a fixed framework, she approaches each person as a partner, working to understand their individual goals, values, and life context before building a plan together. Her care is holistic, exploring lifestyle foundations alongside clinical treatment: nutrition, movement, sleep, stress management, and supplements are all part of the conversation, in addition to medications when needed.
The result is a treatment plan that is achievable, sustainable, and aligned with what matters most to each patient.
