Coming Soon:
Arla Emerson, PMHNP

We are excited to welcome Arla Emerson to Bloom Mental Health as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. She is expected to begin seeing patients later this summer.

Arla is a clinician we are genuinely excited for our patients to meet. She is warm, thoughtful, caring, detail oriented, and easy to talk to. During her clinical training at Bloom, our team so appreciated the way she listened to patients, asked thoughtful questions, and approached care with both clinical seriousness and genuine kindness.

Arla brings many years of experience as a registered nurse, including work in inpatient, outpatient and residential psychiatry, maternal-child health, home health, and hospital care. Her extensive background gives her a broad view of what patients and families are often carrying when they seek psychiatric help.  She also brings an earlier background in early childhood education, which continues to shape her respect for curiosity, development, family relationships, and each person’s unique path forward.

Arla understands that mental health concerns rarely exist in isolation; they are connected to sleep, stress, relationships, medical issues, family history, developmental stage, and the realities of daily life, and she is well equipped to help explore these concerns and find healthy solutions.

At Bloom, Arla will work with adolescents and adults seeking psychiatric evaluation and medication management, focusing especially on treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, psychosis, substance use concerns, borderline personality disorder, and patients receiving ketamine treatment.

Arla’s approach is collaborative and individualized. She wants patients to feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their care. Treatment may include medication, therapy collaboration, lifestyle changes, education, and practical next steps that fit the patient’s life. 

We are thrilled to have Arla joining Bloom and are now scheduling patients for her anticipated arrival.​
