Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New York


Anxiety and depression can make everyday life feel exhausting — and finding the right support shouldn't add to that. I'm a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner practicing via telehealth across New York State, and I genuinely love what I do. My style is collaborative: I'm not here to hand you a prescription and send you on your way. I want to understand your full picture — your history, your goals, what you've tried before — and build a plan that actually fits your life. Care works best when it feels like a partnership, and that's exactly what I aim for. There's no one-size-fits-all when it comes to mental health, and I'll never treat it that way. If you're ready to take the next step — or even just curious about what that might look like — I'd love to connect.

Dr. Sheryl Campbell-Julien, DNP, PMHNP-BC

Peace Of Mind Nurse Practitioner In Psychiatry PLLC

In an era of "assembly-line" healthcare, Dr. Sheryl Campbell-Julien offers a sophisticated alternative. She understands that mental health care is not one-size-fits-all.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, she provides a high-touch, individualized care experience designed for high-functioning professional adults who seek more than just a routine appointment.

Dr. Campbell-Julien specializes in the intersection of clinical precision and personalized care. Whether navigating the complexities of trauma, the weight of burnout, anxiety, depression, ADHD or the nuances of mood disorders, her approach is rooted in quality over volume. Clients benefit from comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and expert medication management that considers the "full picture" of their lives, rather than a list of symptoms.

With a Doctorate from D'Youville College and deep experience in New York's clinical landscape, Dr. Campbell-Julien provides the clinical authority necessary to move clients beyond temporary relief, guiding them towards a sustained state of clarity, balance, emotional resilience and peace of mind.

Happy patient looking away

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 Psychiatrist in Mount Vernon, NY

Finding psychiatrists in Mount Vernon starts with knowing what kind of mental health care you’re looking for. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners may also prescribe and manage medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy and skills-based support. If you’re looking for care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach before booking.

Mount Vernon has local psychiatry options, though availability may vary by schedule, specialty, and appointment type. Virtual appointments can expand your options beyond nearby offices while still giving you access to licensed psychiatrists in New York. Psychiatric appointments for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. You may also choose to work with both a therapist and a psychiatrist, depending on what kind of support fits your needs. Before booking, read bios for details on appointment availability, communication style, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.

Psychiatric care in Mount Vernon 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 find psychiatrists who accept your plan, are accepting new patients, and offer clear booking options. You can compare profiles, check estimated out-of-pocket costs, 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.
