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.
Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming — whether it’s anxiety, ADHD, school stress, or simply navigating life's ups and downs. Maybe you're feeling stuck in relationships, school, or work and your goal is to feel more balanced, confident, and capable of handling daily challenges while building long-term resilience and growth. Regardless of what you're facing, I'm here to help. I’m Dr. Alex Luna, a Columbia and Cornell trained psychiatrist specializing in the care of adults, children, and adolescents.
I help you simplify your medications and narrow down to 1-2 medications that work best for you. My patients would describe me as thoughtful and caring. I strive for patient focused care and manage symptoms with medications that you feel comfortable taking. You set the pace of your treatment. I believe in informed and collaborative decision making.
As your mental health provider here's what I want you to know about me:
- I listen first
- I believe in collaboration
- I treat the whole person
- Medication is a tool, not a requirement.
- There is no shame in seeking help.
- Progress is possible.
With a background in behavioral health administration and years of experience leading programs for adults navigating serious mental health challenges, I bring a deep, practical understanding of how care works and what people truly need. My private practice centers on a niche I care about deeply: adolescents, young adults, and college students navigating anxiety, depression, and the challenges of growing up and moving forward. I offer telehealth sessions in the evenings and on weekends, so support fits into your life, not the other way around.
I am a board-certified psychiatrist committed to delivering compassionate, evidence-based, and person‐centered care to individuals experiencing a wide range of mental health challenges. My training includes a general psychiatry residency in New Jersey and an advanced Addiction Psychiatry/NIDA‐T32 Research Fellowship at Columbia University in New York City, where I received specialized experience in the treatment of substance use disorders, comorbidity, and academic research.

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 Ridgewood
Finding psychiatrists in Ridgewood starts with knowing what type of mental health care you want to access. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work with you on concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, trauma, or life changes. Some people start with a psychiatrist, some start with a therapist, and some work with both. Look for a clinician whose listed specialties, training, and care style match what you want support with.
Ridgewood has local options for psychiatric care, and nearby areas like Maspeth, Middle Village, and Forest Hills may add more choices. Virtual appointments can also expand your search, especially if local availability is limited or your schedule works better with care from home. Psychiatric medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, while some psychiatrists also offer therapy. As you compare profiles, check appointment availability, whether the clinician offers a free phone consultation, and what their bio says about communication style and areas of focus.
Psychiatric care in Ridgewood 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 you book. Headway helps you find psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients with your plan, see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, 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.
