Ages 13+

Psychiatric evaluation & medication management

Board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioners take the time to understand the full picture, then prescribe conservatively: the lowest effective dose, regular check-ins, and stepping down when you’re ready.

Adults

Talk therapy

Licensed independent clinical social workers using CBT, DBT-informed work, ACT, and supportive therapy — focused on the patterns and goals that matter in your real life.

Our philosophy

“Medicine is the life jacket. Therapy is the swim lesson.”

The best care combines the right medication support with the tools to genuinely thrive — not just get by. You set the pace. We’re here to help you get there.

— John Donovan, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC · Founder

Careful, conservative prescribing

A thorough evaluation comes first — never a 15-minute med check. We use the minimum effective dose, reassess regularly, and follow federal and Massachusetts rules for controlled medications.

Your privacy, protected

Clinical care happens in HIPAA-compliant systems. Our website never asks for health details, uses no advertising trackers, and only counts visits and button taps — never what you type.

Honest about what we do

We provide scheduled care, not emergency services. In a crisis, call 911, call or text 988, or go to the nearest emergency room.
