Hi there, my name is Nicole Bellisario. I am a Doctor of Nursing Practice, a double board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), and Clinical Nurse Leader. I provide both medication management and eclectic psychotherapy in caring for the mental health of women, men, adolescents, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, healthcare workers, first responders, and trauma survivors. My current focus is clients with anxiety, depression, PTSD, mood disorders, psychotic disorders, and ADHD. I have extensive nursing experience with diverse patient populations in both psychiatric and medical inpatient and outpatient settings.
My treatment approach is holistic and integrative with a mind, body, and soul perspective focused on education and empowerment. I may refer you to a medical provider for further evaluation of problems that may impact your mental health. When appropriate, I may also recommend complimentary & alternative medicine (CAM) alone or in conjunction with medication.
I encourage my clients in authentic self-expression. If you are having problems with communication, relationships, anger, low frustration tolerance, stress, grief, trauma, burnout, powerlessness, or self-esteem, I am dedicated to your deep healing in a safe, relaxed, judgment-free space. I am excited about our healing work together. Let's connect!
