Anessa Holman, PMHNP-BC
Born and raised in Owensboro, Kentucky, I attended Apollo High School. Upon graduation from Apollo, I began working as a Certified Nursing Assistant while attending nursing school. I worked for almost 2 decades in Cardiac Care and Intensive Care before returning to school at Western Kentucky University, where I earned my Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees in Nursing. I am currently Board Certified through the ANCC as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and have been practicing child and adolescent psychiatry since 2018. Children are my whole heart and I feel privileged to be able to care for my community’s youth here at Owensboro Pediatrics. I have been married for 20 years and have 2 teenage boys.
Rachel Tesreau, MA, LPCC-S
I completed my undergraduate degree in Psychology at Rhodes College and my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Valparaiso University. My husband and I are originally from Missouri, but made Owensboro home in 2016 after living and working in northern Indiana for many years. I love working with children of all ages and teaching others, and I also teach at Brescia for their Master’s of Psychology program. In my free time, I love traveling, shopping, and trying new restaurants.
