With over 25 years of experience in the mental health field, I bring a steady, compassionate presence to individuals navigating anxiety, depression, and overwhelming stress. I believe healing happens in relationships that feel safe, respectful, and collaborative.

I earned my Bachelor of Nursing from University of Connecticut (Go Huskies!) before moving to Boston to start my career in bedside nursing in 2019. After serving as an RN and Director of Nursing at a residential treatment center, I earned my PMHNP at Regis College to specialize in mental health. Since then, I’ve gained diverse experience providing cutting-edge ketamine therapy in outpatient clinics and managing complex cases in inpatient psychiatry. Now, I’m bringing that clinical expertise—along with post-graduate training in CBT—to my full-time private practice, where I provide comprehensive, compassionate care for patients navigating anxiety, depression, OCD and ADHD in the South Boston area.

Choosing a psychiatric provider is a personal decision, and I approach that with care. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner specializing in adult mental health, I focus on understanding you as a whole person and creating a treatment plan that fits your life.

I have worked with diverse populations and often see how anxiety, trauma, stress, and executive dysfunction can interfere with work, relationships, and overall well being. I treat adults with depression, anxiety, ADHD, and substance use concerns, with experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings, including complex cases. I especially enjoy working with college students, professionals, and business leaders who are balancing demanding schedules and high expectations. I also collaborate with caregivers and other professionals to ensure well rounded care.

I’m Alison (Ali) Pugh, a Clinical Social Worker, USAF veteran, and mom of two. I help adults who are juggling work, family, caregiving, or major life changes that feel heavier than they look on the surface. If you’re feeling stretched thin, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next step, you’re in the right place. My style is calm, collaborative, and steady. There’s no pressure to have the perfect words.
