Anne Leinart has been with Hartgrove since September 2009, currently serving as a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. After receiving her bachelor’s degree in psychology at Notre Dame, Leinart then earned her master’s in generalist nursing from DePaul University. Her experience in staff development, infection control and employee health while earning her PMHNP degree gives her unique insight into the mental health industry.
Born in Moline, Illinois, Leinart became interested in mental health at a very young age. She knew being a psychiatric nurse was a perfect fit, so she used that drive and passion throughout nursing school to start her career immediately. Leinart is proud to use her line of work to make a difference in the lives of her patients, who come from a wide variety of backgrounds and deal with a wide range of conditions. She loves seeing her patients get relief from their psychiatric symptoms so they can lead happier, more productive lives. Leinart finds working with children particularly enjoyable because they exude fun and hope.
