I’ve taken the ADHD Care Pledge to support safe and thoughtful stimulant use

Hi! I’m Janelle, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with over 8 years of nursing experience. I provide care to clients across New York, specializing in ADHD, anxiety, bipolar, and depression. My strong foundation in evidence-based mental health care was established through my master’s in nursing and psychiatric specialization at the University of Rochester.

As a psych NP, my background includes treating a wide spectrum of mental health concerns, which supports a comprehensive and individualized approach to care.

I practice from a holistic approach and I believe that our mental health is affected by many aspects of our life. I like to look at a person’s lifestyle, sleep, diet, exercise, interpersonal relationships, and how they all contribute to our mental wellness.
