A Compassionate & Inclusive Approach
Sana Kalra is committed to breaking mental health stigma and bridging care gaps for single parents, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and other underserved communities. She fosters a safe, affirming, all inclusive space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered on their healing journey.
Sana Kalra is a dedicated Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 14 years of healthcare experience, committed to providing compassionate, client-centered care. Her journey from Registered Nurse to PMHNP is rooted in a deep understanding of mental health and a passion for helping others heal.
As a BIPOC provider of Indian heritage, Sana embraces an inclusive, holistic approach, ensuring clients from all backgrounds feel seen, heard, and supported. Having been raised in a partially traditional, yet non-traditional Indian household, she has personally navigated the complexities of Hindu-Muslim family dynamics, cultural expectations, and the challenges of breaking societal norms—especially as woman of color. Overcoming these barriers has shaped her dedication to culturally competent, nonjudgmental care that empowers others to embrace their full potential.
She is a mother of four—one son and three daughters—who identify as both Indian and African American. As a single parent, she has navigated her own mental health challenges while meeting the needs of her children. Through resilience and self-care, she has transformed her experiences into a source of strength, allowing her to support others on their journeys. This deepens her commitment to providing informed, culturally aware care that not only uplifts her clients but also contributes to a more inclusive and accepting future for her children.
Her practice is rooted in cultural awareness, empathy, and empowerment, ensuring every client receives the support they need to heal and thrive.
Sana Kalra, MSN, PMHNP-BC, is a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner specializing in integrative and psychedelic medicine. She is certified in Ketamine and Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy through the Psychedelic Research and Training Institute (PRATI) and is actively advancing her expertise in functional and integrative psychiatry through a fellowship with Psychiatry Redefined.
Furthering her commitment to whole-person care and her knowledge, Sana is pursuing her Doctorate in Nursing (DNP) at the University of Alabama-Birmingham, along with certification as an Adult-Gerontologic Primary Care Nurse Practitioner (AGPCNP).
At Mental Serenity Psychiatric Services, Sana provides personalized, evidence-based treatment that goes beyond medication management. She integrates Ketamine therapy, functional psychiatry, and holistic approaches to create comprehensive care plans tailored to each client’s needs.
These innovative therapies offer transformative healing for individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, and treatment-resistant conditions. By blending science and compassion, Sana fosters a safe, inclusive, and empowering environment where clients can explore healing in a way that honors their autonomy, beliefs, and their cultural or spiritual views.
