I believe good mental health care is about more than checking off symptoms on a list.

As a dual board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health & Adult-Gerontology Nurse Practitioner, I look at the whole picture—your mental health, physical health, sleep, hormones, nutrition, movement, stress, and everything else that may be affecting how you feel.

I listen first, then we work together to create a treatment plan that makes sense for your life. No one-size-fits-all approach. Just thoughtful, individualized care focused on helping you feel better and stay well.

Jose Silva

Jose Silva

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Massachusetts


Hello, I’m Jose — a board-certified Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Doctorate of Nursing Practice from the University of Massachusetts Amherst. My background includes years of experience as a bedside nurse in inpatient medical-surgical and behavioral health settings, caring for pediatric, adolescent, adult, and geriatric patients. Through my training and practice, I’ve learned that every path to wellness is deeply personal. I’m passionate about collaborating with clients to understand their needs, build on their strengths, and take a motivational, compassionate approach to care.

I also recognize how difficult it can be to find LGBTQIA-affirming mental health support. My work is grounded in helping individuals release shame, embrace authenticity, and find balance through life’s challenges. Whether you’re navigating addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, or seeking affirming, identity-centered care, my goal is to support you in thriving and becoming your fullest self.

Find the right psychiatrist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in New Bedford

Finding psychiatrists in New Bedford starts with understanding the kind of mental health care you want to schedule. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose conditions and prescribe medication; therapists provide talk therapy and support. Some people look for psychiatric care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties, experience, and approach match the concerns you want to address.

New Bedford is a smaller city, so local psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger Massachusetts markets. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while still giving you access to licensed psychiatrists who can meet from a private place that works for you. Psychiatric medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber, depending on their care plan. Before booking, review each profile for appointment availability, session format, specialties, and communication style.

Psychiatric care in New Bedford can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your visit. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, and see estimated costs upfront. Every psychiatrist listed is accepting new patients, so you can review bios, compare available times, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
