Dr. Debbie Granick, DNP, PMHNP, LCSW, MPH

Mental Health Nurse Practitioner | Therapist | Educator

 

Debbie Granick is a board-certified, doctorally prepared Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Licensed Clinical Social Worker, also holding a Master of Public Health. With more than twenty-five years of experience across diverse mental health settings, Debbie brings deep expertise, genuine passion, and a grounded, realistic approach to her work with clients ages 17 and older throughout North Carolina.

Debbie provides care both in-person and via telehealth from our North Raleigh location, seeing clients on Mondays and Wednesdays. In addition to her clinical practice, she is also a dedicated educator, dividing her time between treating patients and teaching future mental health professionals.

Originally from St. Louis, Missouri, Debbie completed her graduate and doctoral training at the University of Southern Indiana and the University of North Carolina. Outside of work, she is married, the self-described “occasionally overbearing” mother of three young adult children, and the devoted human to one very attached rescue pup.

Known for her candid, humorous, and down-to-earth style, Debbie creates an environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves. She doesn’t shy away from tough conversations—or the occasional well-placed expletive—and clients consistently appreciate her straightforward, compassionate approach to navigating life’s challenges.

Debbie frequently works with:

• Healthcare professionals, military members, and first responders

• Individuals navigating major life transitions

• People feeling stuck, burned out, or disconnected from the life they want

Her clinical expertise includes:

• Mood disorders and depression

• Anxiety disorders

• ADHD

• Burnout

• Women’s mental health

• Integrative treatment using both therapy and medication

Debbie’s goal is to help clients feel empowered, understood, and supported as they make meaningful, sustainable changes in their lives.
