Dr. Mary Opara

I am a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP), licensed, and Board Certified, in Psychiatry/Mental Health. My Philosophy is "Let all you do be done with love."

I have over 20 years of work experience in the field. In those many years, I have acquired substantial knowledge and skills in my area of expertise.

My specialty areas are:

• Addiction
• ADHD
• Anger Management
• Asperger's Syndrome
• Autism
• Bipolar Disorder
• Eating Disorders
• Mood Disorders
• Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD)
• Psychosis
• Sleep or Insomnia
• Trauma and PTSD

If a client for instance, has depression and anxiety, we will discuss how it affects their life. Talk about what triggers make it worse, and how they handle the symptoms. For compliance, we collaborate on the best plan of care. I present the options for medications, benefits, alternatives, side effects, and encourage therapy as a great combination with the medication.

Environment created will be one of warmth, collaboration of care, and non-judgemental. The ultimate goal is to return the client to be healthy, happy and enjoy life again.
