Hello, my name is Maddie Asghari. As a bilingual (English/Farsi) board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide culturally sensitive care for complex psychiatric needs, including ADHD, OCD, personality disorders, PTSD and trauma, depression, anxiety, panic disorders, mood disorders, and bipolar conditions. My practice serves those who may have felt misunderstood by traditional approaches, particularly within diverse cultural contexts.
I specialize in complex presentations because mental health exists within your entire life experience, relationships, cultural background, and personal history. Whether you're managing ADHD alongside trauma, dealing with OCD symptoms that emerged during difficult periods, or navigating personality patterns as adaptive responses, I work to understand how these experiences shaped you and what healing means within your cultural framework.
My approach emphasizes comprehensive assessment and integrated treatment planning. Many patients come to me after years of confusion or fragmented care. I conduct thorough evaluations, identify overlooked patterns, and develop holistic approaches that address your full spectrum of needs rather than treating conditions in isolation.
I'm committed to creating a partnership where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. Speaking both English and Farsi allows me to connect with clients in their preferred language, honoring cultural nuances. Together, we'll work toward authentic flourishing in all areas that matter to you and build lasting resilience.
