My name is Almaz Assefaw, DNP. I am a board-certified PMHNP and FNP with more than 25 years of clinical experience across both inpatient and outpatient clinical settings. My specialties are ADHD evaluation/testing/treatment, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, crisis intervention, OCD, psychosis, PTSD, and substance use.
Mental health does not exist in a vacuum; it is deeply connected to your physical health, lifestyle, culture, and personal history. I believe that you are the expert on your own life. That is why my practice is built on collaborative decision-making. We will work side-by-side to design a personalized treatment plan that respects your unique goals and values and your voice is central to every decision we make. As a multilingual provider, I am proud to offer culturally sensitive care in English, Amharic, and Tigrinya.
When we work together, you can expect a compassionate, open-minded, and non-judgmental partner. My ultimate goal is that when you finish your appointment, you leave feeling deeply heard and knowing that your concerns have been fully addressed. Rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach, I focus on creating a highly individualized treatment plan designed specifically for your unique goals, values, and lifestyle.
