Founder of Lotus & Sage Root Wellness
Hi — I'm Whitney Graves, a dual-certified family and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner and the founder of Lotus & Sage Root Wellness.
I created this practice because I wanted patients to experience healthcare differently — in a way that feels more personal, intentional, collaborative, and rooted in whole-person wellness.
Too often, people feel rushed through appointments, unheard, or treated as though their symptoms exist in isolation. I believe mental wellness is deeply connected to physical health, hormones, stress, lifestyle, sleep, nutrition, and emotional well-being. You cannot truly separate the mind from the body.
My approach is holistic, evidence-based, and root-cause focused. While medication can be life-changing for some, I also believe healing involves looking deeper at the full picture of a person's health and life experiences.

A different kind of care
Collaborative care
I value shared decision-making — my role is to listen, educate, guide, and partner with you in a plan that aligns with your goals.
Whole-person focus
Mental health is connected to stress, hormones, sleep, nutrition, inflammation, and physical health. I treat all of it, not just the symptom.
Individualized plans
No two patients are the same. I take time to understand your story and build something realistic and sustainable for you.
Mental + modern wellness
Beyond psychiatry, I offer medical weight loss, hormone optimization, vitamin injections, Botox & fillers, and low-dose naltrexone support.

Healing looks different for everyone.
M Y A P P R O A C H
For some patients, treatment may include medication. For others, the focus may be lifestyle changes, nervous system regulation, hormone optimization, therapy, wellness support — or a combination. My goal is always to provide compassionate, evidence-based care that supports long-term wellness rather than quick fixes.
I want patients to leave visits feeling:
heard
supported
educated
empowered
hopeful

A few things I value
Compassion over judgment · Progress over perfection · Personalized care over rushed appointments · Evidence-based medicine with a holistic perspective. When I'm not with patients, I'm with family, traveling, and loving on my two bunnies — my bun children.
