Welcome! I am Mekessia Richards-Carby, a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with over 20 years of experience working in healthcare. My experience in psychiatry ranges from treating children and adolescents in partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs to adults in addiction treatment, as well as older adults as they transition through life changes. I treat a wide range of mental health conditions, including ADHD, depression, anxiety, Bipolar/mood disorders, OCD, sleep disorders, and more.
We all deserve mental wellness, and with a compassionate, and holistic approach to care, I strive to help each patient not only heal but also recover from mental and emotional suffering. I work with my patients to explore their biology, psychology, and environment to better care for their mental health needs.
My most valued goal is for folks to feel heard and understood and to make them feel as comfortable as possible in sharing what is happening with them so we can figure out what will help. If you think we are a good fit, please reach out today.
Call or Mekessia Richards-Carby now for a free 15 minute consultation - (860) 792-4721
