Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
Genesha Bailey, MSN, PMHNP-BC, is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over ten years of experience in nursing across psychiatric, pediatric, and adult care.
Genesha began her nursing career in psychiatric care, working with adults in a long-term support program following discharge from psychiatric services. She went on to serve as a wellness manager in assisted living and memory care, supervise home health nursing teams, and provide primary care nursing to infants, children, and adolescents. Most recently she worked as an inpatient care coordinator, guiding patients through the transition home after hospitalization and helping them understand their treatment plans, manage medications, and connect with the support they needed.
That range shapes how she practices today. She completed her psychiatric nurse practitioner training across four Tennessee behavioral health settings, gaining experience in mental health assessment, diagnosis and management of acute and chronic conditions, and patient education on medication and lifestyle. She places particular emphasis on collaboration, working closely with the rest of the clinical team and with families to make sure care is coordinated and consistent.
Genesha earned her Master of Science in Nursing from King University, where she also completed her Bachelor of Science in Nursing. She is a member of the American Psychiatric Nurses Association, the Tennessee Nurses Association, and Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing.
