I’m a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a background in both medical and behavioral health care. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in real-world experience—helping clients feel understood while working together toward meaningful change.

My professional journey has included years of practice across inpatient, community, and outpatient settings, where I’ve supported individuals and families navigating mental health challenges, substance use recovery, and life transitions. I value creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their goals and develop strategies for wellness and resilience.

I believe effective care blends clinical knowledge with empathy, respect, and open communication. My goal is to meet you where you are, honor your unique story, and help you move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Dana Denaris

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Evesham, NJ


I’m a board-certified Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience working in ICU. My background in ICU shaped how I understand the deep connection between physical and mental health, especially how stress, trauma, and anxiety often show up in the body. I transitioned into psychiatry after witnessing firsthand the emotional toll the pandemic had on patients, families, and healthcare workers. It became clear to me that supporting people’s mental health is just as essential as treating physical conditions.

**Important for New Jersey patients seeking STIMULANT treatment:

Due to New Jersey state regulations, patients prescribed stimulant medications are required to attend an in-person visit at least once every three months. These visits are scheduled at my SoHo office in Manhattan.

Please note that there is a $100 facility fee for in-person visits to cover the cost of the clinical space. This fee is separate from insurance and is due at the time of the visit.**

Happy patient looking away

Find the right psychiatrist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Matawan

Finding the right psychiatrist in Matawan starts with understanding the type of care you need. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and monitor how that medication is working over time. Psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) can also prescribe and manage medication. If you're looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or another mental health concern, a qualified provider can help you understand care options and determine an appropriate next step.

Matawan and the surrounding Monmouth County area — including Aberdeen, Hazlet, Holmdel, and Old Bridge — have a range of psychiatric providers available both in person and virtually. When narrowing your options, consider what matters most: a provider's experience with your specific concerns, whether they offer virtual appointments, and how their approach aligns with your preferences. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their style before you commit.

Psychiatry sessions can be costly out of pocket, so using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to manage costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see an estimated session cost before booking. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Costs vary based on your location and specific coverage, so confirming your benefits is an important first step.
