Michelle Matusalem

Are you constantly worrying, feeling overwhelmed, or struggling to quiet your mind at night? Maybe you’ve been feeling low, unmotivated, or stuck, like even small tasks take too much energy. Whether it’s anxiety, ADHD, depression, or something you can’t quite name, you don’t have to face it alone. I bring a diverse background in healthcare, having worked in Inpatient and Outpatient psychiatric settings, Nursing homes, and Drug & Alcohol rehabilitation facility. These experiences allow me to provide compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to individuals with complex emotional and behavioral needs.

I work with individuals of all ages to diagnose and manage a range of psychiatric conditions, including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, sleep issues, mood disorders, and more. I'm licensed to prescribe medication and provide ongoing medication management to support people in improving their mental health.

I understand that seeking help can feel overwhelming, but you are not alone. I approach every patient with an open mind, free of judgment, and believe in creating a safe space where you can openly share your concerns. I see our work as a partnership—teamwork is essential, and I always take the time to truly listen.
