Elaine Jividen, APRN

I began my registered nursing career on an in-patient psychiatric unit contained within a general hospital. I found it very challenging and grew to love it. Helping patients to improve that had Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia, etc. was very rewarding. I was inspired to go back to college to earn an advanced degree.

I attended graduate school at The Ohio State University and obtained a Master's of Science Degree in Psychiatric Nursing. I am board certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center as an Adult Psychiatric-Mental Health Clinical Nurse Specialist, PMHCNS-BC.

From in-patient to long-term care, from community mental health center to college and on to private practice, I have many years of mental health experience. I have always tried to treat my clients and families as I would want to be treated and look forward to working with you at PPG.
