Dr. Gross graduated from Albert Einstein College of Medicine and completed an internship in pediatrics at Montefiore Medical Center. During this time, a rotation with the child psychiatry consultation-liaison team solidified his interest in psychiatry, particularly the intersection of medical care, family dynamics, and the social contexts that shape patients’ mental health. He completed his general psychiatry residency at the University of Miami, followed by a child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship at Johns Hopkins Hospital.
Healing Across the Lifespan: A Partnership in Mental Wellness
Choosing a mental health provider is a deeply personal decision. You aren’t just looking for a prescriber; you are looking for a witness to your story, an expert in the biological complexities of the brain, and a partner in your recovery.
My name is Jessica Stanley, and I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). My journey to this practice has been defined by a unique duality: the macro view of a healthcare executive and the micro focus of a dedicated clinician. Before opening the doors to this practice, I served as the Clinical Director for a large-scale healthcare organization. In that role, I was responsible for the oversight of complex systems, the mentorship of large clinical teams, and the implementation of evidence-based protocols across diverse populations.
While my time in leadership allowed me to impact mental health at a systemic level, my true passion has always remained in the quiet, transformative moments of the exam room. I have returned to full-time clinical practice to bring that high-level expertise back to where it matters most: the individual human experience.
Mental health does not exist in a vacuum, nor does it look the same at age seven as it does at seventy. I specialize in treating patients across the entire lifespan. Whether I am working with a child struggling to navigate their first years of school, an adolescent facing the pressures of identity formation, or an adult managing the heavy mantle of career and family, my approach remains the same: comprehensive, compassionate, and evidence based.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Springfield, MA
Finding psychiatrists in Springfield starts with knowing whether psychiatric care fits what you need. Psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, medical doctors, and doctors of osteopathic medicine can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication; therapists provide talk therapy and support. Medication management often includes discussing symptoms, reviewing how a current care plan is working, and deciding next steps with a qualified prescriber. People often look for psychiatric care for concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and OCD. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties and experience match the support you want.
Springfield has a mix of local and virtual psychiatry options, so it helps to narrow your search by format, schedule, and fit. An in-person office near Downtown, Forest Park, or the South End may work well if location matters, while virtual appointments can make it easier to access care across Massachusetts. Psychiatric medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, read each profile to understand the psychiatrist’s focus areas, appointment style, availability, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Springfield 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 first appointment. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists who are accepting new patients and match your insurance, preferences, and schedule. You can review bios, see estimated out-of-pocket costs after entering your insurance details, 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.
