Hi, I’m Sarné (Shar-nay), a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 15 years of nursing and psychiatric experience. I believe mental health care should feel supportive, collaborative, and free of judgment. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, stress, and life transitions.
As a professional, mother, and caregiver myself, I understand how overwhelming life can become. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward lasting emotional wellness.
I am committed to lifelong learning and providing care grounded in the latest evidence. I have completed the Certified Integrative Mental Health Professional (CIMHP) training through the Nutritional and Integrative Medicine for Mental Health Professionals program. This advanced training has expanded my knowledge of nutrition, sleep, physical activity, stress management, gut health, and other evidence-informed lifestyle approaches that can complement traditional psychiatric treatment when appropriate. These strategies are thoughtfully integrated into care and are intended to support—not replace—evidence-based psychiatric treatment, including medication management, psychotherapy, and collaborative care.
Whether you’re seeking support for the first time or looking for a provider who takes a whole-person approach to mental health, I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing, resilience, and lasting wellness.

Frequently asked questions
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 Philadelphia
Finding psychiatrists in Philadelphia starts with knowing whether you want medication-focused care, therapy, or both. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work alongside a prescriber. If you’re looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or med management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, credentials, and care approach before choosing who to book.
Philadelphia has many psychiatry options across neighborhoods like Center City, South Philly, University City, and Northeast Philadelphia, which can make it harder to narrow the search. Consider whether an office near transit or your routine matters, or whether virtual appointments fit your schedule better. Psychiatric appointments for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Reading bios can help you understand session structure, communication style, availability, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Philadelphia can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated cost before you book. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who match your needs, many of whom take your insurance and are accepting new patients, so you can review bios, compare options, 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.
