Jennifer Bowman

Jennifer Bowman, DNP, PMHNP, LLC, is a board-certified, psychiatric, mental health nurse practitioner with over 27 years of combined nursing experience. She received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from The Pennsylvania State University, a Master of Business Administration from Robert Morris University (RMU), and completed her Doctor of Nursing Practice from RMU in 2014.

Jennifer is passionate about providing quality, compassionate and comprehensive mental health services to children, adolescents and adults. Her primary focus areas are depression, anxiety, mood disorders and ADHD. Helping females who struggle with mental health issues during pregnancy is also an area of expertise. She follows evidence-based guidelines blended with clinical experience, personal observation, and intuition in the treatment process.

Creating an individualized care plan which values client involvement, interprofessional collaboration and evidence-based practice is her approach. Educating patients and providing supportive care throughout the treatment process aids in reaching the goal for patients to leave her office feeling like they have the correct medication and recognize the importance of adopting healthy lifestyles and coping skills to apply to life.

Prior to becoming a practitioner, the majority of Jennifer’s career was spent at UPMC Presbyterian Hospital in Pittsburgh in the inpatient/outpatient settings. While there, she worked in several areas including cardiology, orthopedics, neurology, case management, general medicine and organ transplant. As a lung transplant coordinator, she discovered the importance of psychiatric and supportive care for patients during this difficult time. Developing rapport with patients became so natural to her, and she realized how valuable it was to the recovery process. Her experience in this role inspired her to pursue a career as a psychiatric mental health practitioner.

In addition to her professional experience, she enjoys reading, exercising, skiing, traveling and spending time with friends, family and her two boxer puppies.

  • “I was very unhappy with my doctors. It seemed no one would listen to what I was saying and how I was feeling. They would just throw a new script at me and didn’t care how it made me FEEL. Dr. Jen was different. She really cared and listened… slowly adjusting meds. I have only gotten better under her care. No one would know I’ve had anxiety and depression since I was in high school. Thank you for caring Dr. Jen !!”

  • “Finally, someone who cares I have had mental health issues for over 20 years. Finally, I have found someone who listens, explains, and takes action to help make me better!! She finally diagnosed me properly after years of being misdiagnosed. Which then led me to getting better and out of my darkness!! I highly recommend her to anyone having mental health issues!!! She truly cares for her patients and takes the time needed for them!!!!”

  • “Dr. Bowman is professional, compassionate and supremely competent. She has a clear desire to continue to learn and adapt to the ever-changing areas of medical science and pharmaceuticals. This gives me great confidence and comfort that she is giving me the best and most up to date advice. Her dedication to patients like me is clear every time I am in to see her. Regardless of how many patients she may have, she makes you feel like you are her only one. I would recommend her to anyone that I love or care about.”

  • “I have been seeing Dr Bowman for years and I always highly recommend her to everyone I know that’s going thru anything. She is willing to take the time to listen and really help You with anything. Most health care professionals have limited bedside manner and I can honestly say I don’t know where I would be if it hadn’t been for her. She can and will help you with whatever you need so if you are dr shopping. She is #1 !!!!”
