Living with ADHD, anxiety, or depression is exhausting — especially when you're trying to hold everything together at the same time. You deserve a provider who meets you where you are and builds a plan that actually moves you forward.I'm Zinny Ezete, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with licenses in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. I specialize in medication management and psychiatric care for adults dealing with ADHD, anxiety disorders, and depression. My approach is direct, evidence-based, and built around your real life — not a generic protocol.My clinical background includes forensic psychiatry, inpatient psychiatric care, and advanced practice across major New York City hospital systems. I've worked with patients at every level of complexity, which means I bring both depth and flexibility to your care.I'm a good fit for you if:

— You've been struggling with ADHD that affects your focus, relationships, or career

— Anxiety is running your decisions or keeping you up at night

— Depression has been dulling your life and you're ready for something to actually change

— You want a provider who is thorough, honest, and treats you like an intelligent adultI offer telehealth appointments in NY, NJ, and CT and am currently accepting new patients. Scheduling is fast — because waiting weeks for help you need now doesn't make sense.Let's get started.Zinny Ezete, APRN, PMHNP-BC
