Kerry Callender
I am a board-certified, Duke University-educated Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner specializing in psychiatric assessment and medication management. Across the course of my career, I have worked in a broad range of clinical settings and have experience treating a diversity of patients and diagnoses.
Having worked with young professionals for the past 4 years, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.
I offer personalized and evidence-based treatment that incorporates medication management, mindfulness, and lifestyle changes to optimize your mental health and well-being. I aim to support you in creating a full and meaningful life that includes the full range of human emotions.
First session
I offer a safe and non-judgemental harm reduction approach to care. We go at your pace always keeping your goals in mind. Your overall health is my priority. I conduct 60-minute initial consultations and 30-minute ongoing follow-up appointments. The ultimate goal is to help you live your best life. Clients often say they feel better after each session and look forward to our next session. Please note that while all visits are currently being conducted virtually, state telemedicine regulations do require you to be located in New York State.

This form of therapy combines mindfulness skills with self-acceptance. It aims to help people be more accepting of their thoughts and feelings.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Our thoughts influence our emotions and behaviors. By modifying thought patterns, we can bring about positive changes in our emotional well-being and behavior.
