Ananda Pienaar, MSN, APRN-BC, PMHNP

I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner in the Division of Psychiatry. My experience spans outpatient and inpatient care, and I currently work with the Interventional Psychiatry Team.

My approach centers on listening to patients, explaining treatment options clearly and supporting informed decision-making. I believe in holistic care that integrates biological, psychological and social factors to create personalized treatment plans.

I deeply respect the dedication families bring to the treatment process and strive to honor their journey.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending quality time with my husband and three adult sons, preparing nutritious meals and exploring new destinations through travel.
