Amber Fessette

I'm Amber Fessette, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 12 years in mental health care including 8+ years as a Registered Nurse and 4 years as a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I bring a deep, well-rounded understanding of psychiatric care to every session. I earned my MSN from Wilkes University and have worked in outpatient psychiatry, which has shaped my belief that good psychiatric care means treating the whole person, not just a diagnosis. I specialize in medication management for ADHD, anxiety, mood disorders, and OCD. I take a collaborative, evidence-based approach that's tailored to how these conditions actually affect your day-to-day life. I bring both clinical expertise and genuine compassion to help you feel like yourself again.

I specialize in working with adults and adolescents navigating ADHD, anxiety, mood disorders, OCD, and PTSD. I believe effective care starts with really listening and understanding your symptoms, your history, and what a good life looks like to you. I take a collaborative approach, combining thoughtful medication management with practical, evidence-based strategies tailored to how these conditions actually show up in your daily life, whether that's racing thoughts at 2am, trouble focusing at work, or just feeling stuck. I always explain my clinical reasoning so you're an informed partner in your own care, not just a passenger. We move at a pace that respects your comfort level, and I regularly check in on what's working and what isn't. My goal is for you to feel genuinely understood and heard.

Your first session is about getting a clear, honest picture of what you're dealing with. We'll talk through your symptoms, history, and what's already been tried, at a pace that feels comfortable for you. I'll share my initial clinical impressions and we'll start building a plan together, which may include medication, therapy referrals, or lifestyle strategies specific to your current situation. You should leave the appointment with a clearer sense of what's going on and a concrete next steps.
