Living with ADHD, anxiety, or depression is exhausting — especially when you're trying to hold everything together at the same time. You deserve a provider who meets you where you are and builds a plan that actually moves you forward.I'm Zinny Ezete, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with licenses in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. I specialize in medication management and psychiatric care for teenagers and adults dealing with ADHD, anxiety disorders, and depression. My approach is direct, evidence-based, and built around your real life — not a generic protocol.My clinical background includes forensic psychiatry, inpatient psychiatric care, and advanced practice across major New York City hospital systems. I've worked with patients at every level of complexity, which means I bring both depth and flexibility to your care.I'm a good fit for you if:

— You've been struggling with ADHD that affects your focus, relationships, or career

— Anxiety is running your decisions or keeping you up at night

— Depression has been dulling your life and you're ready for something to actually change

— You want a provider who is thorough, honest, and treats you like an intelligent adultI offer telehealth appointments in NY, NJ, and CT and am currently accepting new patients.

Hi, I'm Jessica and I love supporting youth and their families to bring out confidence and build healthy relationship patterns to support them as they grow in today's world. I have background in Expressive Arts Therapy and bring creative approaches including art, play, and drama therapy techniques as entry points into cognitive behavioral interventions and strategies to assist with behavior, emotion regulation, and understanding of one's self. My philosophical goal as a therapist is to help people I work with curate more joy into their lives and for children to be seen in their unique strengths and supported to grow through challenges. I believe that curiosity is the antidote to depression. Let's get curious together!

In therapy with me you will find that I emphasize acceptance of emotions, reframing negative thinking, and offering self-grace. I try to help you dig deeper to get the root issue that is causing you to be different than the way you want to be.

We are talking about you and your life, things that matter so I am open and non-judging, relaxed, and very real.
