maegan reid msn, aprn, pmhnp-bc.
Hi, I'm Maegan! I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and the founder of Maegan Reid Psychiatry.
I believe mental healthcare should feel personal, approachable, and centered around you. My passion for psychiatry comes from a genuine desire to help people feel heard, understood, and empowered to take an active role in their mental wellness.
My approach combines evidence-based medication management with compassion, education, and a collaborative relationship. I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to mental health, and I strive to create a comfortable, judgment-free space where we can work together to find what works best for you.
Outside of the office, I'm a wife, mom of three girls, and someone who deeply values faith, family, and meaningful connections. I'm grateful for the opportunity to serve our Lake of the Ozarks community and look forward to getting to know you!

As Director of Operations at Maegan Reid Psychiatry, I help keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes so our patients can focus on what matters most: their mental health.
With a professional background as a Physician Assistant with extensive experience in military medicine, I understand the importance of compassionate healthcare, clear communication, and making the patient experience as seamless as possible.
From scheduling and patient communications to billing and daily practice operations, my goal is to make every interaction with our office feel welcoming, organized, and stress-free.
I'm proud to be part of a family-owned practice that values genuine relationships, personalized care, and treating people like people rather than numbers.
