Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Eliza Rivera-Mitu, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner. I specialize in treating ADHD, anxiety, depression, and mood disorders, as well as the psychiatric challenges in autism. With a background in both psychiatry and family medicine, I take a holistic approach that considers the whole person—not just the diagnosis. I'm passionate about helping you feel heard, empowered, and supported in your mental health journey.

My approach to therapy

My care style is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. I blend medication management with supportive therapy and lifestyle strategies, tailored to your goals. I value open communication and take time to explain options clearly, so you feel confident in your care. I also bring a culturally sensitive lens and welcome clients from all backgrounds.

What you can expect from me

You can expect to feel heard, understood, and supported. We’ll work together to identify challenges, build coping skills, and set small, meaningful goals that lead to real progress. Most clients leave sessions with new insights, a clear next step, and the confidence that they’re not alone in their journey.
