Welcome to Integrated Family Behavioral Health & Counseling PLLC! I'm Mihaela Vladu, PMHNP-BC, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 16+ years of experience in healthcare, dedicated to helping individuals achieve lasting mental wellness and regain control of their lives.
I provide compassionate, personalized, and evidence-based care in a safe and supportive environment where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered. My approach focuses on treating the whole person—not just symptoms—while working collaboratively with you to reach your goals.
I specialize in working with a diverse range of individuals, including younger/older adults, children aged 6 and up, women dealing specifically with trauma and abuse, and veterans, as well as active-duty personnel experiencing PTSD. As a certified ADHD specialist, I provide targeted, evidence-based interventions to help individuals improve focus and daily functioning. I also have extensive experience treating bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, depression, panic disorder, OCD, and other complex mental health conditions.
Areas of Expertise:
• Dual-Diagnosis Care (SUD + mood/anxiety/psychotic disorders)
• MAT: Buprenorphine/Suboxone inductions & maintenance; relapse-prevention planning
• Alcohol/Opioid Withdrawal & Detox protocols (court order MAT program, inpatient, outpatient, and halfway houses)
• Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Psychosis
• Residential/PHP/IOP programmed care & step-down planning
• Trauma-informed care, veteran populations, and complex comorbidity
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 10 years of clinical experience. I am passionate about helping others overcome the anxiety, depression, and trauma that impact their lives. I've worked in education, government, and hospital settings, and I am a former U.S. Marine. I bring depth, knowledge and experience to each session and use them to help promote and support healing for my clients.
