PMHNP, 4 years of experience
Hello! I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. I have 35+ years working with people. I practice in Connecticut as well as Maine. I earned my masters degree at Walden University. I enjoy working with adults and older adults that are experiencing challenges in their lives. This is accomplished though providing support while they work through the challenge using evidenced based practice using medication, talk therapy or both.
our first session, we will start with a brief introduction, and then explore the specific reasons for your visit and the challenges that are bothering you the most. We will brainstorm together and develop a plan of care. This will allow us to work on specific issues and monitor through follow up sessions
Having had alot of experience talking to people, I feel i bring a nonjudgemental, empathetic and positive view to approaching challenges that we all face in our lives at one time or another.
I enjoy working with adults who are struggling and need to talk, medication management, or need to learn the tools need to make improvements in their mental health lives, or relationships
sometimes putting the focus on strengths instead of weakness helps push us forward. Doing this in a compassionate, nonjudgemental empathetic way can allow a patient to feel safe to approach issues, explore the effects on their lives acknowledge them and leave them behind.allowing them to live a more happy and satisfying life.

I struggle greatly with anxiety and the thought of working with someone new was very scary. But within minutes of joining our first session, my worries were put to ease. Janet has been extremely kind, warm, compassionate, and understanding through every step of this part of my journey. She helped me find medication that helped me feel like me again and I’m so grateful.

Our session with Janet was great. She's a good listener, provides insightful feedback, and sincerely cares for her clients. She had lots of knowledge of the medications my wife is on, and their interactions / side effects. We finished the session with actionable items. She's highly recommended.
