Great to meet you!

Mental health care should feel human. I’m Chabellys Payares, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a diverse clinical background spanning ICU, emergency care, PACU, and psychiatry. Those experiences taught me to look beyond a diagnosis and understand the person behind it, while my psychiatric training allows me to bring that perspective into personalized, evidence-based care. My goal is simple: to create a comfortable, judgment-free space where you feel heard, understood, and supported every step of the way.

My approach to therapy

You know yourself best—I bring the clinical expertise, and we work together to figure out what comes next. My style is warm, approachable, and judgment-free, with a strong focus on listening, understanding the whole picture, and creating treatment plans that feel realistic for your life. I specialize in medication management and psychiatric care for concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, mood disorders, and stress. My goal is for you to leave each visit feeling heard, supported, and with a clear plan moving forward.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is a comfortable, judgment-free space to share what brings you in and what you hope to change. We’ll discuss your history, current concerns, and goals, then work together on a personalized treatment plan. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of your next steps and a plan moving forward
