Hello! I am a Licensed Mental Health Nurse Practitioner based in CT. I began with a solid foundation of Primary Care Experience with my first board certification as a Family Nurse Practitioner, but soon realized the need to promote mental health as well! I am experienced with medication prescribing and have a Spravato Clinic as well! Looking forward to seeing you soon!
Our first session together starts with a brief "getting to know you", a start of a new collaborative relationship that focuses on what goals you want to develop--where you are now and where you want to grow! No pressure, just one step at a time. We can set short-term goals that may lead to long-term goal attainment along an evidence-based path!
As a provider, communication is fundamental. I strive to ensure clients are comfortable with communication and are able to identify the components of their challenges. I believe following up with strategic, measurable ways to meet your goals is important to success. In a safe, 1:1 setting, we will promote resources to grow and support accomplishment of your goals for success!
I enjoy a challenge and work with clients who have struggled with various diagnoses, labels, endless medications, and inconsistencies with treatment plans. Ever have a medication prescribed, but never followed up with or have anyone to follow up with?? I enjoy helping give support to "best practices" based on evidence and experience. I serve all clients striving for self-actualization given "best practices"!
Identifying the signs and symptoms of trauma exposure on physical and mental health is key to understanding the impact on daily living skills. We utilize this approach to service delivery that acknowledges the impact of trauma on individuals and strives to create safe, supportive, and healing environment, while avoiding re-traumatization.

I’m glad I found and chose Dr Brescia on growtherapy. She is very kind, friendly, easy to talk to, patient about helping me find a medication that will work for me and knowledgeable about all of them. We also talk about life situations that I have that bother me and I always feel better after talking with her.

Dr. Brescia was incredibly helpful in getting me on the right track. She listened intently and was eager to figure out a cause along with several possible solutions.
