Miriam Fernandes, MSN, PMHNP-BC

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing compassionate, evidence-based care to adults. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, and burnout. My professional background includes experience in both high-acuity and outpatient psychiatric settings, where I have worked with individuals facing complex emotional and behavioral health challenges.

I strive to create a safe, respectful space where clients feel heard and empowered. My goal is to partner with you in developing a treatment plan that supports long-term wellness and meaningful change.

In a world where there is endless advice, online "experts" and seemingly easy fixes, it can be challenging to hit a roadblock and find that nothing feels quite right. Whether it is depression, anxiety, or just a general sense that something is “off”, it keeps you stuck. And you just can't figure out how to fix it. While I have no answers, I offer a place to pause, reflect, and talk about what’s been holding you back. And most importantly, what you want to happen next.

Hi, I’m Jessica, psychotherapist and founder of A Wholehearted Way Counseling. I work with individuals and couples who are moving through periods of anxiety or depression that often show up during life transitions, including perinatal and postpartum experiences, grief and loss, identity shifts, and relationship challenges whether in monogamous or non-monogamous partnerships.

I know that reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and I aim to offer a warm, grounded space where you don’t have to navigate these experiences alone and can begin to feel more supported, understood, and connected to yourself.

With over 15 years of nursing experience, my passion for psychiatry began early in my nursing career as I witnessed patients transform their lives through healing, self-discovery, and resilience. It is profoundly humbling meeting someone at their lowest point and having the privilege of walking alongside them as they do the work to become their best selves.

I work with adults ages 18 to 60 from all walks of life, with a special focus on individuals who are often overlooked, misunderstood, or silently struggling. Many of the people I work with appear “put together” on the outside—successful, dependable, and strong—while internally feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or barely holding it together.

I was born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts, to immigrant parents from Haiti, and my cultural background plays an important role in who I am as a provider. Being deeply connected to both Haitian and American cultures has given me a broad perspective and a deep appreciation for cultural identity, family systems, and the shared human experience. At the core, struggle looks very similar across cultures—and everyone deserves care that is respectful, culturally responsive, and compassionate.

Hello! I am a licensed clinical social worker with experience working with birth to 18, young adults, families, and adults. I have a Master's in Human Development and a Master's in Social Work. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, family needs, crisis management, PTSD, and pre & postpartum needs. I have been in the clinical field for 13 years.

I graduated from Smith College School of Social Work in Northampton, MA, in 2002 and have been helping people with various mental health issues since that time. I have been trained in psychodynamic therapy, DBT, mindfulness, and Somatic Experiencing, among other modalities.

You do not have to have everything figured out before you reach out. You just have to take one

step. I am Sharon, a licensed therapist (LICSW) in Massachusetts specializing in trauma, grief,

and the weight of experiences that do not just go away on their own. I bring a collaborative,

trauma-informed approach built on one core belief: healing happens inside a relationship where

you feel genuinely heard, understood, and safe to go at your own pace. Much of my career has

been spent supporting Veterans and others navigating life's hardest terrain, and I would be

honored to walk alongside you on yours.

My approach is collaborative, client-centered, and trauma-informed. I believe that healing occurs within a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship, where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes. I work with each person to identify their strengths, build resilience, and develop practical strategies to achieve their goals.

I welcome adults from diverse backgrounds and life experiences and strive to provide an inclusive, nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore their concerns and move toward greater well-being.

Whether you are seeking support for past trauma, coping with grief, managing stress, or navigating a difficult life transition, I would be honored to work alongside you on your journey toward healing and growth.
