Welcome. I’m Deon Hough a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and the founder of Melnor Health. My path into mental health began at the bedside as an ICU nurse, caring for patients and families in life‑saving, high‑pressure moments. As a travel ICU RN, I worked across major healthcare systems nationwide and witnessed, time and again, how deeply physical and mental health are intertwined. Those experiences led me to advanced practice training in psychiatry and to a calling: helping people heal not only from crises, but toward wholeness.

At Melnor Health, we meet you where you are. We believe there are many paths to healing, and we partner with you to find what works best for your life. Our care includes both medication management, supportive therapy, and thoughtful, non‑medication treatment options as well—always grounded in evidence, guided by compassion, and tailored to you.

You are more than a diagnosis. We take the time to understand your story—your background, your environment, and the journey that brought you here. With respect, collaboration, and steady support, we’ll walk alongside you, one day at a time, as you put your emotional wellness first. You’re in the right place, and we’re grateful you’re taking this step toward healing and a brighter tomorrow.
