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.

Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or simply stuck—even though you’re doing your best to keep everything together? Maybe you’ve been carrying stress for so long that you no longer remember what it feels like to truly relax. Perhaps your thoughts won’t quiet down, your emotions feel difficult to manage, or experiences from the past continue to affect how you feel, think, and connect with others.

You may be navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, grief, a major life transition, or ongoing stress. You may struggle with setting boundaries, communicating your needs, managing emotions, rebuilding trust, or finding your confidence and sense of direction. Sometimes, there isn’t one specific problem—you simply know that something doesn’t feel right anymore and you want to understand why.

You might be the person everyone depends on—the one who takes care of everyone else while quietly struggling inside. You may have become so accustomed to pushing through that asking for help feels uncomfortable. Or perhaps the coping strategies that once worked no longer seem to be enough.

Whatever brought you here, you don’t have to figure it all out alone.

Therapy can provide a safe, supportive space to slow down, feel heard, and make sense of what you’ve been carrying. Together, we can explore what may be keeping you stuck, understand patterns that affect your well-being and relationships, and develop practical tools to help you feel more grounded, confident, and in control.

You deserve support—not because you are weak, but because you have been carrying a lot. Reaching out for help can be the first step toward healing, growth, and feeling like yourself again.
