ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Sterling, VA

I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to helping individuals across the life span achieve mental health balance and resilience. My approach combines medication management with supportive therapy, always tailored to your unique needs.

Clients often describe me as compassionate, collaborative, and practical. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, or life transitions, I provide evidence-based care in a welcoming environment where you can feel heard and supported.

Heather Figi, PMHNP-BC, is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who believes the best psychiatric care begins with understanding the person behind the symptoms.

Her practice is guided by two simple beliefs:

• People begin to heal when they feel truly seen.
• We are as unique on the inside as we are on the outside.

My goal is to understand you—not just your symptoms. I provide psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and supportive psychotherapy for adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, ADHD, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma-related conditions, burnout, and other mental health conditions. I also have a special interest in helping high-achieving women navigating anxiety, ADHD, burnout, and perimenopause.

During our visits we'll talk about what's been going on, what's worked (and what hasn't), and what you're hoping to get back to. Medication may be part of the plan, but we'll also look at things like sleep, lifestyle, hormones when appropriate, relationships, and other factors that affect mental health.

Before becoming a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I spent more than 25 years teaching violin. Looking back, I realize I was learning skills I still use every day: listening carefully, meeting people where they are, and recognizing that everyone learns—and heals—in their own way.

I earned my Master's degree from Frontier Nursing University and am licensed to practice in Virginia and Maryland. Whether this is your first time seeking psychiatric care or you're looking for a fresh perspective, I hope you'll leave our first visit feeling heard and with a plan that makes sense for your life.

I’m Dr. Sharline Mashack, a board-certified Psychiatric/Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, and I specialize in treating patients with conditions ranging from ADHD to schizophrenia. I use a holistic approach combined with evidence-based practices to develop treatment plans, prescribe medications, and provide psychotherapy.

As a military spouse, I’ve had the opportunity to work in several areas of the healthcare system, learning from experienced leaders along the way. I earned both my Master’s and Doctorate in Nursing.

I work with individuals, couples, and families of all ages. I have a Masters in Clinical Health Psychology and a Masters in Nutrition/Dietetics, which helps lend to a holistic approach to my work with clients. I commonly work with health behavioral change, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, ADHD, OCD, and relationship change. My treatment approach utilizes a biopsychosocial lense in long-term therapy based in psychodynamic, strengths-based, and integrative work in overall health. I utilize coping skills from CBT, DBT, ACT, and Mindfulness. I incorporated life-skills such a assertiveness, boundaries, and career.

I love the work that I do and the healing relationships I have been able to foster with my clients. I believe that therapy is a form of self-care and I want to be an advocate of that for my clients. I welcome anyone who thinks they may want some support, whether long-term or short-term to reach out to me and set up a brief phone consultation.

I'm a licensed clinical social worker who works with individuals navigating trauma, neurodivergence, substance use, relationship and marital challenges, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and LGBTQ+ populations. I use a variety of approaches including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Strengths-Based interventions, and Emotionally Focused Therapy. Therapy is always tailored to meet your unique needs and goals.
