Hello, I'm Theresa Johnson, recognized for my compassionate and attentive approach to those facing challenges. Wearing various hats as a nurse practitioner, my experiences evolved during the COVID era, especially after my time in a New York City ICU at the pandemic's peak. This period intensified my commitment to aiding others. Shifting from intensive care to delving into the intricacies of the human brain became my newfound passion.
Facing life's challenges can be overwhelming, but you're not alone. Your well-being is important, and I'm here to offer a safe and empathetic space. Come as you are.
I specialize in working with individuals dealing with mood dysregulation, depression, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and attention issues. My goal is to support you in understanding and managing your mental health in a compassionate and holistic way.
In-person and virtual medication management and concurrent therapy for adult patients with the following: Depression Anxiety Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Bipolar I and Bipolar II Schizoaffective Disorder

With MD Supervision In my practice, I look for potential psychological influences from childhood to later years, approaching them from an interpersonal and attachment perspective. While I hold the capability to prescribe medications as a nurse practitioner, I equally value the significance of mindfulness in psychological healing and day-to-day decision-making.
