My name is Teena and I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with 20+ years of experience in the healthcare industry. My focus is on medication management, including the safe prescribing of controlled substances when clinically indicated. I hold undergraduate degrees in chemistry and nursing, as well as a master’s degree in psychiatric-mental health nursing. I have “real world” experience caring for psychiatric patients in both the inpatient (hospital) and outpatient (clinic) settings. Psychiatry is my lifelong passion, and I am dedicated to providing compassionate care to all of my clients. I strongly believe “bedside manner matters”.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. Healing takes place through safety and authentic connection, so we will work together to establish both in our time together. We will clarify psychiatric diagnoses to determine evidence-based treatment options, then I will assist you in choosing medications and/or therapeutic interventions to target your symptoms. Follow-up sessions include medication management and therapeutic support to empower you in your self-healing journey.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

GBH prides itself on its high levels of clinical competence and customer service. Additionally, telehealth appointments offer a convenient way for you to meet with your provider (me). There is no time wasted commuting to an office or sitting in a waiting room! Bad weather? Not a problem with telehealth.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

Adult clients seeking help for ADHD, depression, and anxiety are my primary focus (but I like teenagers, too)!
