Yes — we're licensed in Alaska
Shumeka Hill, DNP, PMHNP-BC, FNP-BC, CPNP-AC, LCDC II, holds licensure in Alaska. You'll need to be physically located in Alaska during your appointment, which is a requirement for every telehealth provider, not just this one.
Getting care in Alaska
Alaska's geography makes in-person psychiatric care impractical for many residents, with some communities not connected by road at all. Telehealth is often the only realistic option.
We see patients across Alaska by video — including Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, Wasilla, Sitka and Ketchikan, and every community in between. Because care is delivered remotely, where you live in Alaska makes no difference to whether you can be seen.
Continuity is the whole point
ADHD treatment is a process of adjustment. Dose, timing, formulation and strategy all get refined over months. That only works if the person adjusting them remembers what was already tried.
You see the same provider at every appointment, so your treatment builds on itself instead of restarting each time. Your provider knows your history because she took it.
Treatment is more than a prescription
Medication, where appropriate, is one part of ADHD care. The rest is everything around it.
- Medication management and adjustment over time, where indicated
- Managing side effects rather than tolerating them
- Treating co-occurring anxiety and depression in the same appointment
- Sleep, which both worsens ADHD and is worsened by some treatments
- Practical strategy for work, school and executive function
Other care available in Alaska
One provider, so these are handled together rather than referred out.
ADHD Treatment in Alaska: common questions
- Are you licensed in Alaska?
- Yes. Shumeka Hill, DNP, PMHNP-BC, FNP-BC, CPNP-AC, LCDC II, is licensed in Alaska and in 22 other states. You need to be physically located in Alaska at the time of your visit.
- Do I need to travel anywhere in Alaska?
- No. All care is delivered by video from wherever you are in Alaska. There is no office to drive to and no waiting room.
- Can an online provider prescribe ADHD medication?
- Under current federal rules, yes — controlled medications may be prescribed following an audio-video telemedicine evaluation, where clinically appropriate. A prescription is never guaranteed in advance of an evaluation.
- I already have a diagnosis. Can you take over my care?
- Yes. Bring your records or prior provider's information and we will review your history before continuing or adjusting treatment.
- How often are follow-up appointments?
- More frequently at first while treatment is being adjusted, then spacing out as you stabilize. Controlled medications require regular follow-up.
- Do you treat ADHD alongside anxiety or depression?
- Yes, and that is a reason to be here. Your provider is a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, so co-occurring conditions are managed together rather than referred out.
Medication is prescribed only where clinically appropriate following an evaluation. No prescription is guaranteed. You must be physically located in Alaska at the time of your visit.
