Rosemary Dougherty

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New Hampshire


I’m Rosemary, a licensed psychiatric nurse practitioner who is deeply committed to walking alongside you through life’s more tender and challenging moments. I work with adults who are navigating grief, loss, and major life transitions, and I also offer faith based therapy for those who want to incorporate their spiritual beliefs into the healing process.

Before specializing in mental health, I spent many years as a family nurse practitioner, which shaped the way I see people as whole and complex individuals. I believe everyone carries a story that deserves to be heard with care and respect. If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or searching for meaning in a difficult season, I want to hear your story and help you find a way forward that feels true to you.
